Pharmaceutical Engineering

Post-genomic Engineering

Pharmaceutical Engineering

Australia's first post-genomic engineering program addressing the pharmaceutical manufacturing challenges arising from the completion of sequencing the human genome

Transforming drug discoveries for improved health in the new millennium

Pharmaceutical Engineering is a cutting edge program with an innovative, inter-disciplinary approach to post-genomic engineering. This new degree at the University of Adelaide is concerned with process improvements from drug discovery to the delivery of correct dosages achieving prescribed outcomes. Pharmaceutical Engineer's take small scale drug formulation processes and upscale to industrial production without loss of effectiveness whilst economically improving delivery and manufacturing processes.

Graduates will be capable of driving the developments, commercialisation and manufacturing components within the pharmaceuticals industry. With a global labour shortage, graduates will command lucrative national and international career opportunities.
