| The pharmaceutical industry is facing an accelerated development. As society is aging, more emphasis is being placed on the development of new drugs and the improvement of the health care system. Pharmaceutical, biotechnology and the medical device industries are experiencing constant growth, stimulated by market opportunities and by advances in biotechnology. As new therapeutic technologies and diagnostic products are developed, more jobs are created in Regulatory Affairs field. Increase demand in the quality of research and development associated with the biopharmaceutical industry has made a positive impact on the job market. As more regulatory thresholds are created, more people are hired to comply with regulatory demands.
The Regulatory Affairs profession involves the combination of scientific, legal and business perspectives to ensure appropriate compliance during new and existing product development, manufacturing and distribution.
