Production processes and quality of health products specialization

The goal of "Production processes and quality of health products" specialization is to give students the skills required to master the processes used to manufacture and control health products, in compliance with regulatory and quality requirements. Students also gain knowledge of the drug's industrial ways and specific analytical methods applied to the control of health products.

Prerequisites

Knowledge in :

• Chemical Engineering
• and / or chemistry

Objectives

• Design processes for the production of health products
• Manage production units in compliance with regulatory requirements and quality approach
• Implement health product control procedures

Skills

• Master the unit operations of chemical engineering applied to the production of pharmaceutical products
• Realize and validate the quality control procedures of the drug (pharmaceutical raw materials and final drugs) by applying the regulations and the analytical development methodologies
• Conduct stability studies
• Apply the reference texts in terms of pharmaceutical regulation and quality management of the drug
• Conduct a Quality Assurance process
• Work in multidisciplinary team process engineering / chemistry / pharmacy

Prospects

• Pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, medical devices
• Pharmaceutical engineering (manufacturing, optimization and validation of processes)
• Production management and production transfer
• Galenic development
• Quality Control of raw materials (drugs, excipients, packaging) and finished products
• Development of methods (new molecules, stability studies...)
• Quality Assurance in production (GMP, equipment qualification, change control, quality review)
