Pharmacology with Industrial/Professional Experience (4 years) - BSc (Hons)

Our BSc Pharmacology with IndustrialProfessional Experience course will enable you to gain experience of the workplace on a year-long placement during your degree, making you more attractive to potential employers after graduation. You will explore drug actions on living systems - where they act, what they do, how they are metabolised, and how they exert toxic effects. Understanding all of this requires studying drug actions at levels ranging from the single molecule to the whole organism. As a result, our course includes aspects of molecular biology, chemistry, physiology and neuroscience, and you will examine both the actions of current drugs and the development of new drugs throughout the course. In Year 3, you will have the opportunity to go on a placement with one of our trusted partner' organisations in the UK or abroad.  Alternatively, you can choose to arrange your own placement (subject to approval from the School of Biological Sciences). Placements range from research project work to roles in education, the biotechnology industry and science communication. Our course has Advanced Accreditation from the  [Royal Society of Biology](https:www.rsb.org.ukeducationaccreditation) , which recognises academic excellence in the biosciences and highlights degrees that educate the research and development leaders and innovators of the future.
