Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Medicinal Chemistry

Program Description

To help students stand out in the pharmaceutical industry, this course gives them both a solid understanding of the theory and practical skills required to succeed. For working in big pharma, it’s everything students need it to be.

Chemists have been instrumental in ridding the world of killer diseases and developing drugs that improve the lives and outcomes for millions of people worldwide. As a medicinal chemist, students will be at the forefront of this battle as they discover how chemicals and drugs work.

Rather than the broad range of modules and knowledge, students will get on a traditional chemistry course, this course is designed to give them the specific specialist knowledge to work in the pharmaceutical or drug development industry. The in-depth study of pharmaceutical techniques students will be learning will support then when they graduate to save lives through the development of the next generation of drugs and treatments.
