Biotechnology at UMBC Shady Grove
Dr. Sheldon Broedel Talks about Program Expansion to USG
UMBC has expanded its Biotechnology Master of Professional Studies (MPS) program to UMBC at The Universities at Shady Grove.
With courses in the life sciences, as well as management and business courses, the Master's in Biotechnology Program equips students with practical experience and management skills. The MPS Biotechnology curriculum provides advanced instruction in the life sciences, along with coursework in regulatory affairs, leadership, management, and financial management in a life science-oriented business. The MPS Biotechnology represents a new kind of degree designed to prepare science professionals to fill management and leadership roles in biotechnology-related companies or agencies. This unique degree offers an alternative degree option for individuals not interested in pursuing a M.D. or Ph.D. degree.
