Your learning is supported by placements in either community or hospital settings in each year of the course. This helps you develop your confidence and skills, and gain professional experience preparing you for all areas of the profession including community, hospital and industrial pharmacy.

181129_JB_3D_pharmacy_005

Integrating an understanding of chemistry, pharmaceutics, microbiology, physiology, pharmacology and health psychology with the practice of pharmacy in providing the best care for patients, our pharmacy programme is taught through a series of cases studies that bring together the science of pharmacy with the needs of the patient.

GPC - General Pharmaceutical Council

Our Pharmacy MPharm is accredited by the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC), the UK's independent regulator for pharmacy. Accreditation from the GPhC means that graduates are eligible to progress to the pre-registration programme.

After you graduate from a GPhC-accredited MPharm course you complete a year of pre-registration training. This is paid work in a community or hospital pharmacy where you’ll build a portfolio of evidence and demonstrate your competence while being observed at work. Your progress is guided and verified by a tutor.
