What is AAPS ? AAPS is the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists AAPS is a professional, scientific association of approximately 11,000 pharmaceutical scientists employed in industry, academia, government, and other research institutes worldwide. AAPS provides a dynamic international forum for the exchange of knowledge among scientists to enhance their contributions to health. AAPS offers timely scientific programs, ongoing education, opportunities for networking, and professional development.
What are Student Benefits • Visiting Scientist Program • Mentoring Events • Networking/Professional Development/Career network • Student Chapters • Communication (i.e. Awards/Travelships/Programming) • Student Reps to Sections and Committees • Annual meetings • Learning through Focus group(s) • eLearning, Webinars
Within AAPS you have the choice of 9 sections • APQ - Analysis and Pharmaceutical Quality section • BIOTEC - Biotechnology section • CPTR - Clinical Pharmacology and Translational Research section • DDDI - Drug Discovery and Development Interface section • FDD - Formulation Design and Development section • MSE - Manufacturing Science and Engineering section • PPB - Physical Pharmacy and Biopharmaceutics section • PPDM - Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Drug Metabolism section • RS - Regulatory Sciences section
What is the MSE section all about? VisionThe MSE section will be recognized globally as the premier organization of individuals dedicated to the advancement of science and engineeringas applied to the design and manufacture of pharmaceutical products. Mission • forum for interchange of scientific knowledge and technical advances related to efficient and robust design, implementation, and execution of the manufacture of pharmaceutical products. • foster graduate education, career growth, and professional development • recognize excellence and achievement of its members, encourage programming and publication of manufacturing-related scientific works by its members in AAPS-sponsored journals
What are MSE membership benefits? • MSE Newsletter • Travelships • Awards • Broaden Your Scientific Knowledge • Present Scientific Data • Expand Your Network • Participate as a Volunteer
MSE launches Ambassador Program This program is intended to • Raise awareness amongst students about MSE-related career opportunities, especially in industry • Create open communication channels between academia and MSE • Better-prepare new hires for industry • Role of MSE scientist/engineer in Pharma and Bio • Job expectations • Identify ways to enrich academic programs with industrial topics related to manufacturing
Agenda Part I • AAPS Overview and Student Benefits • AAPS MSE section • MSE ambassador program Part II • Career Tips and Opportunities • Personal career perspective – Speaker name • Discussion Q&A
