Haub School of Business 

The Department of Pharmaceutical Marketing in the Haub School of Business is the nation’s oldest and largest program dedicated to pharmaceutical marketing. Students come from all over the world to join this program, and the program boasts graduates from as far away as China and Singapore. The department has faculty who have all worked in industry and still actively consult to different facets of the healthcare industry – pharmaceutical manufacturers such as Pfizer, Eisai, Johnson & Johnson and Novartis.

The faculty teaches in an internationally-recognized pharmaceutical marketing degree program at both the graduate and undergraduate level. The department provides students job placement with manufacturers such as Novartis, GSK, Pfizer and Sanofi-Aventis, research companies such as Covance, generic companies such as Teva and Shire, and suppliers such as IMS and Verispan, as well as large and small ad and PR agencies such as Sudler Hennessy, Havas/EuroRSCG, Burston, to name a few. Our graduates pursue entry level marketing, analyst and sales positions and are fast-tracked to the executive level. Many of our graduates have already been recognized early in their careers as President’s Club, and other high level achievement s within their organizations.

Since the faculty have worked full time in the industry or actively consult, they can share contemporary issues and how these are being addressed. Industry speakers often ask to come and speak to students and biweekly, top level speakers in marketing, sales, regulatory, clinical affairs, market research visit either with our classes or with PILOT, our student association – Pharmaceutical Industry Leaders of Tomorrow. Together with PILOT, the department maintains strong industry ties which assist the placement of graduating seniors, and also with internships both domestically and globally.
