About this Program
As the development of new pharmaceuticals, devices and biotechnology products continues to expand, the number and complexity of the clinical trials necessary to gain regulatory approval continues to increase. EMU's clinical research administration program includes both didactic information and hands-on experiences in order to provide qualified new personnel to the clinical research enterprise. It also provides opportunities for professionals participating in the drug/device development process to increase their knowledge base as well as their research/creative skills.
Clinical research professionals are the individuals who design, conduct and supervise the final human testing of the drug and device development processes. They work in academic medical centers, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries as well as in government agencies (e.g., FDA) that regulate the testing and new product approval process. Clinical research administrators play a vital role in this process.
