Courses are offered at night, on weekends, and online. Students may start the program in any semester (Fall, Spring, or Summer) and may also finish any time of year.
The M.S. in RAQA requires the completion of 36 credits (12 core and 24 elective) within five years. There is no residency requirement. Once students are formally admitted, they are expected to take a course every Fall and Spring semester until they complete the M.S.
There are four required courses. It is strongly recommended that new students start by taking Drug Development (5459) or Food and Drug Law (5592). These courses serve as the foundation of knowledge for the program and will help students understand the issues, terminology and topics covered in other courses.
