Descrizione
Descrizione della formazione
The Master of Science Drug Sciences provides theoretical and practical skills in the field of the discovery, development and safety aspects of drugs. This Master program is focused on a future career in industrial or academic research, product development or in a regulatory agency.
Focal area of teaching and research
The Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences and its associates offer a comprehensive Master course for students with a Bachelor degree in pharmaceutical sciences. Students with a Bachelor in a related field within the natural or medical sciences are also encouraged to apply (see chapter «Admission»). This course provides basic knowledge focusing on pharmacology and toxicology as well as on the drug discovery and development process. The curriculum was developed by the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Basel in close collaboration with scientists from the Department Biomedicine, the Basel-based life science industry, the Swiss Centre for Applied Human Toxicology (SCAHT) and regulatory authorities.

Doctorate: The Master in Drug Sciences qualifies for a doctorate at the Graduate School of Natural Sciences. In some cases the acceptance is associated with additional requirements. At the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences the graduates are eligible for a doctorate in pharmaceutical sciences or toxicology without additional requirements. Transfaculty doctorates are possible in the fields of epidemiology, history of the sciences, medical-biological research and pharmacology. The doctoral studies last three to four years. After the acceptance of the dissertation an oral examination covering the postgraduate studies in the doctoral subject has to be passed.
European Registered Toxicologist: Additional elective courses offered as part of the MSc Drug Sciences provide the theoretical basis for subsequent registration as a professional toxicologist. In addition to the theoretical basis, five years of professional experience are required to apply for inclusion in the professional register (see https://www.swisstox.ch/register_member.html).
