As such, we consciously address the needs of this modern and growing industry.You will develop a strong grounding in basic chemistry and biology, and also cover advanced topics relevant to modern pharmaceutical chemistry. As well as underlying theory, the course covers the application of those skills into areas of pharmacy:- metals in medicine, dosage and formulation- pharmacology and toxicity- analytical science- regulatory requirements.These fundamental skills will help you to succeed in this diverse and dynamic sector.Learn from internationally leading experts through a combination of lectures, practical classes, workshops, and tutorials.
