Course summary
**Course overview**- If you’re interested in how the human body functions then you’ll love our Physiology and Pharmacology (Foundation Entry) course. We’ll equip you with a solid foundation in scientific knowledge and prepare you to take on a full honours degree.- On this course you’ll study the human body in both normal and altered states, looking at the development of disease and how we use drugs to combat such disease. It’s ideal if you’re thinking about a career in the pharmaceutical industry – drug testing, drug research, drug design and development, lab work or other bioscience-based professions.- Foundation entry degree courses like this one are ideal if you’ve got the ability to study for a degree but you don’t have the qualifications needed to directly enter the full honours degree programme.- During the foundation year we’ll equip you with the essential knowledge and understanding of theoretical and practical science skills you’ll need to succeed at degree level.**Why study with us**- The Foundation Year will provide you with an interesting and stimulating grounding in science. You’ll gain a sound understanding of how drugs and medicines can have a beneficial effect on the body and how adverse reactions to pharmaceuticals can arise.- During your foundation year you’ll build your confidence and become an independent learner. You’ll gain key practical skills in our modern, spacious and well-equipped laboratory facilities.
