I have been working in pharmaceuticals for the past 8 years. I started out as a pharmacy technician in 2013 and now I work as an Associate Director of Regulatory Affairs. Over the years I have learned a lot about the pharmaceutical industry and the different departments that make drug development appear seamless. I will spend the next few months expanding on different departments so you are able to understand where you can look for work should you be interested in the pharmaceutical industry.

I am a Global Associate Director in Medical Affairs and have a BSc, no masters and 7 years Med Affairs experience at big pharma (Roche, MSD, AZ, etc - all med affairs roles). Maaaannnyyy people I know in Medical Information have BSc only too, no masters. You are right that generally, a BSc only makes it harder to compete for roles breaking into Med Affairs but in my experience it just means you will likely take the long road up once there! "Finessing the exposure" as you call it 😉Good information for aspiring MA colleagues, though!

I'm from the UK. Can you get into the leadership roles if you dont have a doctorate degree and just an MSc?

[@faaizahibrahim989]

Im a bit confused...was it your MPH degree that lead you to the pharmaceutical world or you took a Pharm degree

[@vaughnpeterson4634]

I have a masters in Clinical Exercise Physiology, 5 years of cardiac rehab/stress testing experience and 1 year of research experience in clinical trials. I am looking to land a job with Medtronic, Boston scientific or Abbott laboratories dealing with cardiac medical devices in clinical affairs. What do you suggest I do to make myself more competitive? Are there any certifications I can obtain?
