Master of Science - Pharmaceutical Analysis

This course offers key skills in pharmaceutical analysis, including measurement, scientific practice, evaluation and interpretation of data. Students will study recent trends in analytical science and techniques and be introduced to pharmaceutical technologies, such as formulations and clinical pharmacokinetics. 

Through the research project, students will develop valuable research skills. Past projects have examined areas such as determining caffeine and its metabolites in human serum samples using GC-MS, and synthesis and use of compounds as probes for biochemical reactions. Students will gain hands-on experience of state-of-the-art equipment in Kingston's modern laboratories. Visiting speakers and industrial visits support the course and help students contextualise their studies.
