About Pharmacy, MPharm - at University of Nottingham

Undergraduate Study

We are committed to excellence in both teaching and research within an environment where students and staff are valued members of an academic community. The MPharm course has three main aims:

    • to educate students to become competent pharmaceutical scientists of high professional standing
    • to provide a breadth of education in pharmaceutical discovery, development and usage; and
    • to provide graduates with the scientific, clinical and professional knowledge and skills appropriate to practice as a pharmacist

Start your pharmacy career at a world top 10 and a UK top 10 university for pharmacy and pharmacology*.

Much of our teaching is case-based. We provide integrated teaching across therapeutic themes or disease states. For each topic, you will look at it from the angle of the drug, the medicine and the patient. You'll gain patient interaction experience through placements in community and hospital pharmacies. You'll also take part in patient workshops. 

You can practise patient consulting and dispensing in our simulated pharmacies. The final year has a module called Pharmacy Leadership and Management. You'll work in teams to run your own simulated pharmacy. The module looks at the commercial, clinical and ethical issues that being a pharmacist involves. Read Bianca's blog about her experience in this module.

* QS World University Rankings by Subject 2020 and Complete University Guide by Subject 2020.

The course is fully accredited in the UK by the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain. It develops a range of transferable skills and the ability to work to the highest professional and ethical standards, based on a patient-centred approach.
