Course summary

Pharmacology is the scientific study of drugs or medicines and is essential to all medical disciplines and the treatment of disease. You’ll develop skills relevant to the pharmaceutical industry that will in-turn help to address global challenges, such as tackling antibiotic resistance. You will be equipped with the knowledge needed to develop new drugs to treat global challenges such as Ebola, Covid-19, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease and Cardiovascular disease. You will study the principal body systems and explore individual areas of pharmacology in great detail. Areas such as psychopharmacology, antiviral therapy, cancer therapy and molecular pharmacology.Our focus will be on making you workplace ready, equipped with the knowledge, skills and attributes required to succeed in whatever career you choose. To showcase your knowledge to potential employers, you will undertake a capstone or culminating research project, where you will bring together the knowledge, skills and attributes developed throughout your degree. You will be involved in active learning approaches including critical thinking, creative problem solving, team-working and mini-projects to progressively develop the key skills and attributes required by Pharmacology graduates.Work placement- OptionalStudy abroad- Optional
