Program Overview

Business Administration MBA/Pharmacy Practice PharmD

School of Management

Program Description

The School of Management and the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences jointly offer a five-year program leading to the Master of Business Administration (MBA)/Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree. The dual-degree program reduces the usual pattern of a four-year PharmD program and a two-year MBA program, by one year.

The MBA is a valuable credential that can be paired with a number of professional degrees, offering advanced business training concurrently to students pursuing professional credentials. The School of Management offers six such "collaborative" offerings: the MBA/AuD for speech pathologists, the MBA/Real Estate Development MS for planners and developers, the MBA/DDS for aspiring dentists, the MBA/MPH for public health professionals, and the MBA in combination with our surgical residency, for surgeons-in-training.
