About this course
Our MPharm Pharmacy with Preparatory Year course will set you on the path to a career as a qualified pharmacist.
You will learn how the body works, how medicines affect it, and how these medicines are designed. The course content focuses on the different areas of the body, such as the heart, and you will learn the chemistry, biology and pharmacy related to each one. This will enable you to apply information to patient care right from the first year.
