Pharmaceutical Sciences

About this course

Pharmaceutical Sciences sits at the intersection of chemistry, biology and medicine, concerned with how drugs are discovered, developed, formulated, tested and brought to patients. It is a discipline that spans a wide range of areas, from the molecular mechanisms by which medicines work in the body to the formulation science that determines how they are delivered, the regulatory frameworks that govern their development, and the chemistry and biology of cosmetic and personal care products. It is a field of considerable economic and social importance, underpinning one of the UK's major industrial sectors.
