A/ Drug discovery biology

Drug discovery biology explores the biotechnological aspects of drug design and evaluation. You will learn how to discover and evaluate new targets and study the biological effects of drug candidates. Graduates will have the knowledge and expertise to be employed in translating drug targets into pharmaceutical products, both in industry and academia.

B / Formulation science

If you specialise in formulation science, you will learn how to formulate, design and evaluate pharmaceuticals. The formulation science and chemistry knowledge our graduates gain also means they are ideally suited to exciting careers in developing cosmetics, foods, agricultural chemicals, veterinary products, paints and inks, and many other consumer goods.

C / Medicinal chemistry

Medicinal chemistry is at the intersection of biology and chemistry. It is specialised chemistry that deals with how drugs work, how drugs are designed and how drugs are made. Our graduates gain a broad range of these skills, which cover the full range of the drug development cycle and open up industrial, academic and commercial career paths.
