Pharmacology BSc
University College London, Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT, United Kingdom
Embark on your exploration of the fascinating world of drug action. Discover how molecular breakthroughs lead to new medicines, how existing drugs can have innovative new uses, and the importance of challenges like side effects and addiction.
In the first year, you’ll prepare for advanced study by building essential foundations across a range of scientific disciplines, combining the fundamentals of pharmacology with chemistry, biochemistry, cell biology, physiology and statistics.
In your second year, you’ll harness and apply this knowledge, developing your understanding of the mechanisms of drug action and conducting extensive in-vitro lab experiments using tissue samples.
In the third and final year, you’ll get to explore a wide range of optional modules allowing you to strengthen and augment your expertise across specialisms that complement our world-leading research.
You’ll also have the option to put your education into practice, by carrying out a hypothesis-driven laboratory research project (dependent on early year grades) or a literature research project exploring evolving topics at the cutting edge of pharmacology.
