BSc (Hons) Pharmacology and Drug Discovery

How can we support an ageing population and fight the increasing number of cases of diseases such as cancer? How can we help one in four people suffering from mental health issues? These are just some of the challenges you’ll explore on our pharmacology and drug discovery degree. You’ll be able to apply your passion for chemistry and biology and put it to use for the good of human health, developing the life-changing medicines of the future. Study at the internationally renowned School of Chemistry, Pharmacy, and Pharmacology, with world-class research in areas such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, antibiotic resistance and tissue engineering. Your instructors will be academic researchers, including pharmacologists, cell biologists, medicinal chemists, and pharmaceutical chemists. The course brings together scientific disciplines – biology, chemistry and physical sciences – focusing on human disease and medications. Within integrated modules, you’ll study major diseases and the science behind the drugs used to treat them. You’ll also learn about designing experiments and writing reports in the form of scientific papers.
