Pharmaceutical and Chemical Sciences (with Foundation Year)

About this course

Pharmaceutical and chemical sciences brings together two disciplines that share deep intellectual foundations while addressing distinct applied problems. Chemistry provides the understanding of molecular structure, reactivity, and synthesis that underpins all drug discovery and development, as well as the formulation of cosmetic and hygiene products. Pharmaceutical science extends this into the applied study of how drug molecules interact with biological systems, how they are absorbed and metabolised by the body, how they are formulated into medicines, and how they are regulated and brought to market. Together, they prepare graduates for the science-intensive sectors that depend on chemistry's practical application to human health and wellbeing. At the University of Bedfordshire, this four-year full-time programme begins with a foundation year, which builds the chemical, biological, and
