Program Description

Our extended degree in pharmaceutical sciences explores areas such as biochemistry, biology, physiology, pharmacology, and drug design and delivery. A project and laboratory work will give you opportunities to get hands-on experience.

Before studying the same modules offered on our three-year course, you'll complete a foundation year. This will get you up to speed with learning at degree level. The course is a stepping stone to qualified person status with the Royal Pharmaceutical Society. You can also apply for membership of the Academy of Pharmaceutical Sciences.

Notes:

• Tuition fees for students who have citizens' rights after Brexit: £9,250

• Placement year fees: £1,000
