2-Term Pathway - International Foundation Year in Science - Continue to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Pharmacology

Pharmacology is the study of drugs and how they affect the human body and other living systems. If students love performing experiments in a lab and want to work in an industry that improves the lives of millions of people, this BSc (Hons) Pharmacology degree is for them.

Students will deepen their chemistry and biology knowledge as they study how drugs – such as painkillers, antibiotics and even caffeine – alter the body's systems.

Students will investigate why people's bodies respond differently to the same drugs and look at how new medicines are developed, tested and launched.

Students will have the opportunity to further enhance their career prospects and workplace skills by applying to do a sandwich year in industry. An optional module allows students to study the business side of the pharmacology industry.
