Course summary

Pharmaceutical chemistry plays a huge role in drug design and discovery, from treating diabetes to curing cancer. With a strong emphasis on gaining practical laboratory experience and employability skills, our programme offers a comprehensive view of this exciting field. Learn how drugs are designed and optimised from lead compounds, their modes of action and pharmacology. We will also teach you how they are developed through trials and into manufacture. Teaching centres on synthetic organic chemistry, but we’ll also give you a strong grounding in physical and inorganic chemistry as well as spectroscopy. You’ll learn about pharmacology, biochemistry and cancer chemotherapy too. In your final year, you’ll conduct your own supervised research project, either laboratory or literature-based. As well as being well equipped for a career in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries – which are among the UK’s largest – graduates are highly valued by business and finance employers for their data-handling and analytical skills. Apply for our Pharmaceutical Chemistry BSc with a Year in Industry/Research. Some of our students have been awarded highly prestigious work placements with UK and international pharmaceutical companies. During your second year you will identify and apply for a placement opportunity, with one on one support provided by your adviser. If successful, you'll spend your third year working in the pharmaceutical industry or carrying out an extended research project.
