About Master of Science - Pharmaceutical Sciences with Industrial Practice
Accredited by the Academy of Pharmaceutical Science, Greenwich's MSc Pharmaceutical Science with Industrial Practice course helps students develop the enhanced skills needed to succeed in the pharmaceutical research, development and manufacturing industries.
The first year is spent studying the MSc in Pharmaceutical Sciences. Students will improve problem-based learning through case studies, develop entrepreneurial skills, and discover the values of ethical enterprise. During the second year, learners can opt for an internship. It's an opportunity to put into practice the knowledge and experienced from the first year.
The placement provides a valuable opportunity to work in state-of-the-art industrial laboratories. Students can combine advanced learning of leading techniques and processes with how they are applied in industry, all contributing to their professional development as a scientist. The workplace mentors support students throughout their placement year. These mentors help students to set objectives and goals and ensure they receive appropriate training.
Students will emerge with advanced knowledge and extensive laboratory skills, covering disciplines including drug discovery and medical chemistry as well as product development and manufacturing. Graduates are in high demand due to the combination of in-depth knowledge and skills and experience.
The programme team and other contributors to the course are globally recognised specialists in their fields. Colleagues from industry (e.g. Pfizer, GSK, Novo Nordisk, Merck/Proctor & Gamble) deliver guest lectures each year as well as industry-relevant teaching sessions and seminars.
This course is taught by lectures, seminars, workshops and lab-based exercises, with the use of practical case studies. Students will gain teamwork experience to simulate an industrial setting as well as the critical thinking and problem-solving abilities which are important for modern pharmaceutical practice. The Pharmaceutical Science with Industrial Practice programme is designed to give students the space for exploratory and independent study. They'll work towards individual and group assignments and undertake the preparation or follow-up work associated with lectures, seminars, integrative assignments and laboratory classes.
The University also encourages students to take advantage of a range of related extra-curricular opportunities available within the university and elsewhere. Graduates should be able to find employment in a range of industrial settings, from QA or QC, drug discovery, research and development, pharmaceutical pre-formulations, formulations and production regulatory affairs.
