Recommended Course Order

Certificate Program

To help you plan your coursework effectively and maximize your learning experience, we suggest the following sequence:

  • Take PHA 6125 (Introduction to Quantitative Pharmacology) during your first summer semester: This course is a prerequisite for several core courses – PHA 6122 (Population PK/PD), and PHA 6131 (PBPK Modeling). Since PHA 6125 is not offered every semester, we recommend taking it at your earliest opportunity.
  • Plan to take PHA 6418 (Introduction to Model-Informed Drug Development) in your second year: This course is based on real-world case examples and will be most beneficial if you are already familiar with the methodologies covered in earlier courses.
