I work in the pharma industry specifically in clinical trials. I'm thinking about getting a Masters in Public Health or Masters in Health Administration to eventually move up in pharma in a management/director role and get a higher salary. I make 70-80K and would love to end up in the 120-150K range in the next 5 years. I have a clinical research/pharma/medical background.
I know there are other opportunities for MPH in public health departments/academia/epidemiology organizations and not sure what the starting salary outlook is for new grads after completing the program?
What is the starting salary for new grads of MHA programs? I know that can lead to different career paths too from healthcare consulting to hospital administrative work to medical business work as well.
I'm not completely sure I would stay in pharma and clinical trials, but I do want to grow professionally and eventually make over 6 figures. Ideally I would continue to work and do a MHA or MPH part-time online/weekend/evenings and try and finish within 1-2 years.
Anyone with more insight on starting salaries and different career paths or specifically having those degrees in the pharma industry and working at a large pharma company or CRO please share you advice!
