Overview

Pharmaceutical Sciences (Extended) is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Pharmacology is regulated, so entry requirements and English levels are set higher than in most subjects and are rarely negotiable.

Tuition ranges from £17,975 to £19,400 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
