How to Apply  

Applications are processed throughout the year. Late applications may be considered for admission. However, the entire application packet must be received by the RA and QA office before it is reviewed by the admissions committee. Applicants are responsible for making sure that all materials have been received. 

Students with a greater interest in the manufacturing process are required to submit a formal application for admission to Thomas Jefferson University, and students with a greater interest in regulatory affairs should submit a formal application for admission to Temple University. In either instance the student will complete an informal nondegree-seeking application to the partner institution to enroll in courses and transfer or apply the required credits to their home school. 

Submit the application by email to QARA2@temple.edu. 

Requirements 

It is expected that applicants have a strong science or engineering background. A BS in bioengineering or chemical engineering, biochemistry, biology, chemistry, physics or a related discipline is required.
