在这里学什么？

In recent years, there has been tremendous growth in pharmaceutical and medical device research and development. This growth has been both in the traditional pharmaceutical companies and in the emerging biotechnology industry. Collaborative initiatives between industry, academia and the clinical community have significantly expanded the opportunities for individuals to participate in the clinical research enterprise. Many factors have fueled this expansion, including the emergence of new discovery and manufacturing technologies, new drug therapies, the Human Genome project, high throughput screening techniques, as well as growth and the aging of the “baby-boom” generation. In 2015, over $100 billion was invested in medicines and medical device research in the United States. In order to conduct this growing clinical research enterprise, there needs to be an expanded and better-qualified workforce. This workforce must possess the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and abilities necessary to accomplish the tasks of coordinating and monitoring clinical studies as well as managing data and interfacing with the global regulatory agencies. Eastern Michigan University developed one of the first academic programs designed to produce individuals credentialed to function in the area of Clinical Research Administration and is now a national leader in the area.

The mission of EMU’s Clinical Research Administration Program is twofold: a) to provide an academic experience which includes both didactic information and hands-on preceptorships in order to provide qualified new personnel to the drug and device development industry and b) to provide an opportunity for professionals currently participating in the drug/device development process to increase their knowledge base as well as their research/creative skills. This should provide a pathway for upward mobility in their professional careers. Toward this end, EMU has developed two interlinked programs. The Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Clinical Research Administration consists of four courses which provide information concerning the drug and device development process, good clinical practice (GCP), Federal regulations and guidelines (The United States and international), clinical research protocol development, implementation, and monitoring. Courses are offered in a hybrid (face-to-face and online) format which suits the nontraditional student and allows the student with a full-time job to complete the courses while continuing to work. Upon satisfactory completion of the didactic component of the program, students may apply for admission into a hands-on preceptorship experience with contract research organizations, pharmaceutical firms, and clinical facilities which collaborate with the program.

The Master of Science in Clinical Research Administration is designed for individuals who are already employed or credentialed in the medicines, or device development field and desire increased perspective and competency and a higher level of responsibility. The four required courses in the certificate program are supplemented with program electives, cognate electives, and a project or thesis. Students may focus their program to credential them for employment opportunities in Clinical Trial Management (CTM) or Regulatory Affairs (RA) or both through the selection of appropriate electives and specialized preceptorship opportunities.
