Pharmaceutical Chemistry with a Year in Industry/Research Bachelor of Science (with Honours) - BSc (Hons)

Study pharmaceutical chemistry to develop skills that will open doors to rewarding opportunities in a range of industries. You’ll learn how AI accelerates the drug discovery process, search for ways to combat diseases and viruses, and be at the forefront of medical research.

Our Pharmaceutical Chemistry programme is designed to equip you with the practical laboratory experience and employability skills needed to thrive in this dynamic field.

From pharmacology and biochemistry to cancer chemotherapy, inorganic chemistry, and spectroscopy, you’ll gain a deep understanding of the principles shaping modern drug discovery and development. 

You’ll explore how drugs are designed and optimised from lead compounds, uncover their modes of action and pharmacology, and learn how they progress from clinical trials to large-scale manufacture.

Our innovative teaching approach blends lectures, tutorials, augmented reality, and lab simulations, ensuring you develop the critical skills to tackle real-world challenges as a pharmaceutical chemist.

In your final year, you’ll put your knowledge into practice by conducting an independent research project, guided by expert supervisors. Whether lab-based or literature-focused, this experience will prepare you for a career at the forefront of pharmaceutical science.

This programme is accredited by the [Royal Society of Chemistry](http://www.rsc.org/ "Royal Society of Chemistry"), giving graduates Associate Member status.
