Applied Pharmaceutical Sciencei

About

Pharmaceutical Science encompasses a range of scientific disciplines, introducing students to the exciting world of drug discovery, development, and management. Our aim at Lincoln is to produce passionate pharmaceutical scientists who are adept in addressing the healthcare challenges of the future and are well prepared for careers as leaders in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.

The first year introduces students to the core subjects that are fundamental to pharmaceutical science, such as chemistry, cell biology, human anatomy, and disease. Students can then progress to examining the analytical methods relevant to drug development, medicine delivery, immunology, pharmacology, and toxicology in the second year, where they also explore key research techniques.

The third year introduces more advanced subjects as well as the regulatory and ethical standards that apply to industry professionals.

In the final year, students can use the knowledge they have gained in the previous years to lead projects which aim to solve problems currently experienced in the pharmaceutical industry, and have the chance to work alongside an experienced academic on an independent research project. There are also opportunities for students to take part in research alongside academics in order to develop their knowledge, experience, and enhance their skill set.

The course is taught through lectures, seminars, laboratory-based practical classes, and lectures from visiting scientists from the pharmaceutical industry.
