Pharmacy MPharm
Our MPharm programme is taught through a series of case studies that apply what you learn to real life scenarios by bringing together the science of pharmacy with the needs of the patient.
Placements in either community or hospital settings in each year of the course prepare you for work as a patient-focussed professional. You’ll benefit from inter-professional learning opportunities through close links with Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS) and learning informed by research and clinical practice.
You’ll undertake a research project alongside our researchers, who are leading the development of innovative biomedical products and pioneering new approaches to regenerative medicine and the treatment of cancer, asthma, diabetes and other chronic diseases.
This course offers a guaranteed interview scheme with the Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS) for students who want to pursue a degree in medicine. See the careers and employability section for more information about entry and eligibility criteria.
Important information for international students
All international students from outside the European Economic Area who graduate with an MPharm from a UK university must apply for a visa in order to work in the UK (ie to undertake their pre-registration training).
