CME 573 - DRUG DELIVERY: ADVANCED PHARMACEUTICS

College of Engineering

Credit(s): 3

Drug delivery is a multidisciplinary field that combines the expertise of engineering/pharmaceutics and medicine to design better therapies for a wide variety of diseases. This course will provide a solid foundation on the mathematical principles that underlie all drug delivery technologies. These principles will then be integrated into several delivery routes and dosage forms, including pulmonary, oral and transdermal. This combination of fundamentals and case study applications will provide a broad understanding of the origins and current state of the art in drug delivery.

Prereq: Students not enrolled in Pharmaceutical Sciences or in Upper level Chemical Engineering require consent of instructor.
