2. Introduction
Pharmaceutical engineering is a branch of pharmaceutical
science and technology that
involves development and manufacturing of products,
processes, and components in the pharmaceuticals industry.
While developing pharmaceutical products involves many
interrelated disciplines (e.g. medicinal chemists, analytical
chemists, clinicians/pharmacologists, pharmacists, chemical
engineers, biomedical engineers, etc.), the specific subfield of
"pharmaceutical engineering" has only emerged recently as a
distinct engineering discipline. This now brings the problem-
solving principles and quantitative training of engineering to
complement the other scientific fields already involved in drug
development.
