Master in Pharmaceutical & Biotechnology Management

The Master in Pharma & Biotech Management is a cutting-edge programme covering the most recent developments in the pharmaceutical, biotech and life science industry. EADA offers you the opportunity to join a top-ranked business school in the city centre of Barcelona, one of the European hubs of the sector. 
At EADA, you learn qualitative and quantitative skills that provide added value to your profile in the industry. Classes are small and diverse, and participants learn from experienced faculty using the case study method. 
The core courses take place in the first and second trimesters, with the opportunity to discover where your interest lies during the professional concentrations offered in the third trimester: Pharma, Consumer Healthcare, Biotechnology, Medical Devices and eHealth. 
The courses at our Barcelona City Centre Campus are combined with leadership modules at our Residential Training Campus. During these modules, you develop the critical thinking skills and leadership abilities that make you an asset to any organisation in the industry.
From the very first day, you dive deep into the business side of pharma and biotech.  You develop the critical thinking skills to analyse and perform well in even the most demanding business situations. Expert faculty and carefully selected case studies mean that you leave with a firm grasp of latest professional practice and the strategy to apply it effectively. 
Your conferences & off-campus visits
