Regulatory affairs are integral to the registration and approval of pharmaceutical products in an increasingly demanding legislative and competitive environment. The Drug Regulatory Affairs programme from the University of Nicosia will provide the participants with a comprehensive overview of the complex regulatory landscape across all phases of the drug development process. The programme graduates will be able to contribute to the registration of safe and effective medicinal products in compliance with stringent regulatory requirements.

Regulatory Affairs (RA) professionals play a critical role in the pharmaceutical industry since they are the ones responsible for a healthcare product’s lifecycle, providing strategic and operational direction and support to work within the regulations and guidelines to expedite the development and delivery of safe and effective products worldwide. The demand for RA professionals is evident across the pharma industry, consultancy companies, regulatory agencies, and clinical research organisations. The postgraduate course at the University of Nicosia offers high-quality education for people who would like to follow this career pathway. In addition, the programme is structured in such a way that it offers those already employed in this field at a junior level the opportunity for continuing professional development
