Pharmaceutical Chemistry with a Year in Industry/Research

University of Reading

Apply your knowledge of chemistry and biology to pharmaceutical practice with our BSc Pharmaceutical Chemistry with a Year in Industry or Research.Our new Pharmaceutical Chemistry degree has been developed together with our industrial partners to produce high-quality graduates for the pharmaceutical sector – an area that already employs 67,000 people in the UK, and contributes £30.4bn to the national economy per year. We go beyond organic chemistry – which is traditionally associated with pharmaceutical programmes – to cover many other areas of chemistry and biology. As such, we consciously address the needs of this modern and growing industry.You will develop a strong grounding in basic chemistry and biology, and also cover advanced topics relevant to modern pharmaceutical chemistry. As well as underlying theory, the course covers the application of those skills into areas of pharmacy:- metals in medicine, dosage and formulation- pharmacology and toxicity- analytical science- regulatory requirements.**For more information, please visit the course page: https://www.reading.ac.uk/ready-to-study/study/subject-area/chemistry-ug/bsc-pharmaceutical-chemistry-with-placement**
