The Master of Science in Regulatory Affairs is designed to deepen students' understanding of the global compliance requirements for the development, marketing approval, and utilization of highly regulated products, including food, drugs, biologics, and medical devices.
Students declare concentrations in General Regulatory Affairs, Operational Regulatory Affairs, Strategic Regulatory Affairs, Clinical Research Regulatory Affairs, International Regulatory Affairs, or Regulatory Compliance.
This capstone course challenges students to exercise their ability to apply global regulatory requirements into submission-ready documents and broadly applicable regulatory science solutions.

-
Deliverables are negotiable, and will seek to align the needs of the students and the organization.
Some final project deliverables might include:
- A 10-15 minute slide deck presentation on key findings and recommendations
- A detailed report including their research, analysis, insights and recommendations
Project Examples
Student projects can range from clinical trial design, FDA or international submissions + reporting, drug classifications, to regulatory market research or adverse event profiling.
Example projects include:
FDA Regulatory Pathway Strategy
A Greek medical innovation company created a device where heart failure patients will be able to self-manage their condition and interact with their doctor, preventing any dangerous events. Students will research the FDA regulatory procedures required to enter the US market with this device and create a detailed regulatory pathway strategy.
Clinical Trial Design
The organization is an early-stage company engaged in the development of an eye blood flow circulation device. The device assesses and monitors sight-saving eye blood flow circulation during the aging process.
Students are challenged to write the protocol for a clinical trial. The protocol document will need to detail all aspects of the trial: its background, rationale, objectives, design, methodology, statistical analysis plan, and organization.
Communications Strategy for Medical Device- Pre-FDA Approval
The organization is an early-stage company engaged in the development of therapeutic device to reduce inflammation. The product is currently pending FDA approval. Organizational leaders seek student support to develop a communication strategy to promote the product effectively, but stay within FDA and legal guidelines as to not jeopardize the approval process. The desired outcome of the collaboration is an FDA compliant communication strategy for organizational leaders to implement on the website ahead of full FDA approval, including language and actions to be used and avoided.
