Major: Physiology and pharmacology

If you’re interested in the intricate interplay between physiological processes of the human body and the drugs used to treat diseases and maintain health, the physiology and pharmacology major is designed for you. This interdisciplinary major will provide you with a deep understanding of the human body at the molecular, cellular, and systemic level, along with mechanisms of drug action and their clinical applications. You will exploit skills and fundamental knowledge acquired through core Biomedicine 1st and 2nd year subjects to explore how our organs function when we’re healthy, as we age, during stresses such as exercising, and when we develop a disease. Core concepts of physiology and pharmacology will be reinforced through integrated workshops and practical classes. Opportunities to communicate in different modes to varied audiences will provide you with valuable transferable skills. This major combines scientific inquiry with practical skills, preparing you to make meaningful contributions to healthcare, the pharmaceutical industry, or biomedical research.
