Pharmacoengineering Graduate Program at the University of North Carolina

Beginning in Fall 2013, The Division of Molecular Pharmaceutics (MOPH) in the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (the #2 School of Pharmacy in the U.S. in NIH funding and US News & World Report ranking), in a collaborative effort with the Joint Department of Biomedical Engineering at UNC-Chapel Hill and North Carolina State University, is offering the PhD program in pharmaceutical science with an emphasis on Pharmacoengineering, which is an emerging discipline that integrates engineering methods with pharmaceutical sciences.  This program focuses on training students to work at the interface of engineering and pharmaceutical sciences to develop safer and more effective medicine and medical technologies.  This program may be of interest to many of our undergraduates.  More info can be found online at http://pharmacy.unc.edu/pharmacoengineering.
