Master of Science in Biotechnology/MBA
A joint offering of the Zanvyl Krieger School of Arts and Sciences and the Carey Business School
In today’s aggressive biotechnology business environment, there is an acute need for leaders who understand both the science and business of biotechnology. Johns Hopkins University offers one of the nation’s first joint graduate degree programs in biotechnology and business. Graduates earn two Johns Hopkins degrees. The program allows students to master areas such as biochemistry, biostatistics, and bioinformatics while developing critical business skills in areas such as accounting, finance, negotiation, and regulatory and legal matters.
FLEXIBILITY
Designed for working adults, the Master of Science in Biotechnology / MBA graduate degree program offers a part-time program of study. Courses are taught during evenings or weekends at the university’s Montgomery County Campus in Rockville, MD.
STRENGTHS
The joint degree program allows students to earn two advanced degrees in less time than it takes to earn them separately. Students complete 10 courses for the MS in Biotechnology and 14 for the MBA. Students follow a curriculum sequence allowing them to complete both degrees in three years.
As one of the largest biotechnology and business programs, and ideally situated both in the Shady Grove Life Sciences Center and near federal research and regulatory agencies, the program capitalizes on the strengths of leading experts, Johns Hopkins academics, and a diverse student body.
