On the Pharmaceutical Formulation and Entrepreneurship MSc, you’ll build the mix of scientific and business skills needed to create and grow high-impact pharmaceutical ventures. You’ll learn all about the latest technologies in medicines development, as well as how to assess a new business concept, raise finance for it, and market it successfully.
You will learn how to develop and assess a new business concept, and how to raise finance for and market a business and its outputs. You will build your scientific skill set by exploring four scientific research areas in pharmaceutics, and you will interact closely with and be mentored by those who have direct experience of initiating a start-up business.
On the science side, you’ll develop your research and analytical skills working with UCL’s world-leading academics, and explore the latest technologies being used to develop new medicines today, such as gene therapies and machine learning.
From a business standpoint, you’ll then cover everything that goes into launching and growing a pharmaceutical venture, from IP routes and finance to regulations, policies and marketing, with mentorship from academics who have successfully launched their own start-ups and spinouts.
The compelling mix of entrepreneurial and scientific skills the course provides will stand you in excellent stead for launching your own venture, staying in research, or going on to work on drug design or development for a healthcare, biotech or pharmaceutical company.
