Master of Science (Pharmaceutical Science & Technology)

NUS Department of Pharmacy has been running the Master of Science (Pharmaceutical Science and Technology) [MPST] programme since 2008. This programme was started as a part-time coursework based programme in response to directions from EDB to train science, pharmacy and engineering personnel to be proficient and knowledge-ready to meet the needs of the pharmaceutical/biopharmaceutical industry (e.g. in the areas of formulation, process and product development, quality assurance, and regulatory affairs) in Singapore.

To make our students relevant in the future pharmaceutical/biopharmaceutical industry, a broad-based approach is adopted in our curriculum, to encompass the various stages of pharmaceutical/biopharmaceutical development. The Department sees the importance to keep abreast with the evolving needs of the pharmaceutical industry and has taken the effort to restructure the curriculum, and update the contents with new courses introduced for students to read, in order to ensure the continued relevance for the graduates.

Currently, there are two pathways towards the MPST part-time programme, either by Direct Admission Route or via ‘Stackable’ Route. This part-time programme caters mainly to prospective Singapore-based students who are already working in or aspiring to enter the pharmaceutical/biopharmaceutical industry.

The Department has launched a MPST full-time programme that commences in AY2022/2023 Semester 1. This full-time programme with a shorter duration of candidature, is open to both local and overseas prospective students.
