O que eu aprenderei?

Advance your knowledge and training in pharmaceutical economics and policy and pharmacy administration.

This strategic STEM-designated program focuses on pharmaceutical economics and policy, global drug policy, pharmacoeconomics, outcomes research, health epidemiology, pharmacoepidemiology, and pharmacy management. Designed to fit your life, it gives you the choice to study in-person at our Boston campus or online and to begin your studies in the fall or spring semester. The Boston-based program offers both a thesis and a non-thesis option. The online program is an asynchronous non-thesis course of study and is intended primarily for part-time students.

Your Learning Experience

The program is designed to be completed in two years, whether you study at the Boston campus or online.

First-Year Experience

study comparative pharmaceutical healthcare systems and regression analysis
learn about health epidemiology and quantitative methods in PEP
begin a graduate seminar in pharmaceutical economics and policy

Second-Year Experience

pursue recommended electives in a variety of subjects, including law, health policy, pharmaceutical economics, and statistics
explore market-access pricing and reimbursement
complete a capstone in data analysis and presentation capabilities

Online program

The requirements for the online program are identical to those for the in-person program except in the following areas:

Enroll in just two courses per term if you need to fit the program around a heavy work and family schedule.
Take courses during the summer term so you will be able to complete the program in two calendar years.
An additional three-credit elective serves as a substitute for the three credits given for the thesis or the seminar requirement in the non-thesis option.

Program Objectives

Upon successful completion of the MS program in PEP, a graduate should be able to:

Assess the appropriateness of research designs for health care interventions for comparative effectiveness, policy analyses, and health economic evaluations
Apply and interpret the results of statistical, epidemiologic and health economic analyses/evaluations
Effectively synthesize evidence to inform key stakeholders including industry, regulators, and policy makers
Analyze the structure and functions of U.S. and international health care systems, focusing on finance and delivery
