| You have an interest in how medicines work. You want to learn about their actions in living systems. As the demand for new drugs continues, the need for specialists to discover and test them grows. Join our team of aspiring pharmacologists to learn how drugs are made, developed, and marketed. We’ll introduce you into the world of medicine in an engaging and practical way. Explore the methods used to test the effectiveness and safety of new medicines. Get hands on experience in our modern Science Building with great teaching and research laboratories. You’ll be able to use well equipped laboratories spread over five storeys of innovative facilities. You will work alongside researchers, academics, industry specialists and other students. Our flexible programme introduces you to a range of Biomedical Science topics in your first year before you begin to specialise in Pharmacology for your remaining studies. If your interests change in the first year, then it’s easy to swap to another Biomedical pathway. That’s why we give you the chance to experience a range of modules before committing to the Pharmacology pathway. We believe in flexibility. We will guide you to find your passion to study what you really love.
While you explore various new and exciting areas in this degree, we will be with you all the way. You’ll get a personal tutor, who’ll support you in gaining subject-specific skills in scientific writing, data interpretation, and communication. Take advantage of peer support too in group workshops. Share your breakthroughs and discuss patient case studies. This programme is the stepping-stone into a wide range of scientific careers in the Health-care Industry. We also have students graduating to take up places at Medical School and on Masters and PhD programmes at top British universities. We are proud of our professional and aspiring pharmacologists, and we are very proud of our degree. You’ll also gain plenty of transferable skills to enter broader fields like teaching or business if you prefer. |
