Location matters when you're building a pharmaceutical career.

The Philadelphia region is a major hub for biotechnology, life sciences, and pharmaceutical companies, putting Temple students in the middle of multiple research and career opportunities.

Companies like Johnson & Johnson, GSK (GlaxoSmithKline), AstraZeneca, Merck, Pfizer, and countless biotech startups and mid-size companies are located within 50 miles of campus. Plus, we have an abundance of academic medical centers (Temple Health, Penn Medicine, Jefferson Health); research institutions (Wistar Institute, Fox Chase Cancer Center); government agencies; and contract research organizations right in our backyard.

We work closely with these companies on research projects, grants, and community initiatives, and ensure our students get the face time they want and need to propel their careers forward.
