HOBOKEN, N.J. ― WebCampus, Stevens Institute of Technology’s award-winning online unit, today announced a partnership with the International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE) to provide its 25,000 Members with discounts on the school’s leading-edge online graduate programs.
As a result of this partnership, ISPE is able to provide its Members an additional benefit: ISPE Members will receive a ten percent rebate from Stevens’ off their Web Campus tuition, potentially equaling thousands of dollars over the course of completing a master’s degree.
ISPE Members now have access to a number of flexible options to deepen their knowledge of the industry with two master’s degrees plus five four-course graduate certificates in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing, from the Schaefer School of Engineering and Science, that integrate the study of pharmaceutical manufacturing concepts together with advanced engineering design and scientific techniques.
In addition to these engineering programs, the Howe School of Technology Management at Stevens offers master’s degrees with pharmaceutical industry tracks in either Pharmaceutical Management or Information Systems, as well as four-course graduate certificates in Pharmaceutical Management and Pharmaceutical IT that are also being offered online.
