Pharmaceutical Science with Regulatory Affairs BSc (Hons) at Kingston University Penrhyn Road Campus,, England

                                   


OVERVIEW

How do we ensure new drugs are safe for the public, correctly evaluated and their use properly regulated? Regulatory Affairs is an area of growing opportunity in the pharmaceutical industry.

This course focuses on public health and the introduction of drugs. You'll learn to produce legal applications for new drug licences, deal with different regulatory authorities and ensure drug safety. The course also offers a practical understanding of the pharmaceutical industry. You'll explore different sources of medicine, how they work and how they are made, packaged and administered.

At the end of Year 1, you may apply to transfer to the Pharmacy MPharm course, dependent on academic performance and an interview process.

The course seeks to provide all students with an in-depth knowledge and understanding of the core areas of pharmaceutical science and associated legal framework for the use of therapeutic agents in society. These include learning how to design, synthesise and develop drugs through the study of appropriate examples as well as an understanding of how the regulatory framework is intertwined with practical and scientific considerations. Thus the programme emphasises the acquisition of practical scientific skills as well as up-to-date theoretical knowledge in the area of pharmaceutical science and the regulation of the use of medicines.

Alongside this discipline-specific practical and theoretical knowledge however, students will also be able to develop their independent learning skills using various sources and be given opportunities to enhance their written and oral communication skills. Such generic skills prepare students for graduate employment in many scientific disciplines generally, but especially in the area of regulatory affairs where attention to detail around the legislative framework in which drugs are used and distributed is of paramount importance.

The degree is aimed at preparing students to work in the pharmaceutical industry and public sector. The course covers synthetic chemistry, drug discovery and development, formulation, clinical trials, quality control and analysis, toxicity and safety testing, pharmacovigilance, the mechanism of action of drugs used to treat some of the major diseases (eg cardiovascular diseases, cancer and dementia) and regulatory affairs.

Please note that this is an indicative list of modules and is not intended as a definitive list. Those listed here may also be a mixture of core and optional modules.
