I am interested in pharmaceutical policy and understand that BUSPH has a subconcentration within this field. Can anyone offer some information regarding the HPM, PAMP program at BU? (e.g. professors, quality of coursework, any information in general) Thanks!

I don't know too much about it, but, I do know that pharma policy is BU's strong area. I've heard that if you're interested in pharmaceutical policy, BU is the place to be.
Also, I don't think that most schools (or any schools?) have tracks specifically in pharmaceutical policy...

Thanks for your response. BU is the only program with pharma policy that I know of, as well. Any BUSPH students know anything about the program?

I'm a BUSPH alum and I overheard from some current students that they got rid of the track, apparently for lack of interest. Obviously, this is just through the grapevines; maybe calling the BU's health policy department can clear this up?

Thanks - I checked in with the HPM dept and they informed me that the pharmaceutical concentration remains in place.
