Program Overview

 Develop the knowledge and skills to work as a pharmacologist within the pharmaceutical or life sciences industries with our new BSc Pharmacology.

This course has been designed to align with the British Pharmacological Society's core curricula and was developed with the needs of the pharmaceutical industry in mind.

You will:

  • Explore the principles of drug action and molecular targets.
  • Develop practical pharmacology laboratory skills and expertise in experimental design.
  • Master essential mathematical skills and statistical analysis techniques.
  • Gain insights into systems pharmacology.
  • Learn mathematical and computer modelling methods.
  • Understand the role of pharmacology in marketing, registration and clinical trials of medicines.

You'll work with academics across our Chemistry, Food and Pharmacy, Biological Sciences, and Mathematical, Physical and Computation Sciences schools.

Reading is one of the UK's top 10 universities for pharmacy and pharmacology (Daily Mail University Guide, 2025), and we have experts in pharmacology, pharmaceutical chemistry and pharmacy practice, as well as biomedical science and mathematics, who are all working on different aspects of drug research. In the National Student Survey 2024, 92% of our Pharmacy students said teaching staff are good at explaining things (92.13% of responders from the School of Pharmacy).

On this course you will also have the option of spending a year in industry with our four-year BSc Pharmacology with a Year in Industry.
