Bachelor’s degree (B.Sc./B.Pharm or equivalent) in a quantitative, chemical, biological, biomedical sciences or engineering field. Minimum GPA: 3.0 out of 4.0 (a B average). This may be calculated from all undergraduate and/or graduate coursework. A 3-year degree from a non‑Bologna system may require a credential evaluation (e.g. from NACES). Subject prerequisites: Foundation in life sciences or engineering. Though specific course prerequisites are not listed, strong academic preparation in chemistry, biology, materials science, drug delivery, and nanoscience is expected.
