Pharmacy is a rewarding career, especially for those who enjoy helping other people maintain their health and wellness. A Pharmacy MPharm degree can kickstart your educational journey to becoming a pharmacist. You’ll gain a solid understanding of chemistry and other organic sciences, medicines and drug development, medical pharmacology, and human physiology and pathology. Your on-campus knowledge will also be supplemented with practical pharmaceutical experience. Following graduated, you’ll be well prepared to enter foundation-year training, leading to registration with the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC), aiding your journey to becoming a qualified pharmacist in the UK. This course prepares you for other pharmacy-related careers, in drug discovery, clinical trials, research and teaching, and medical sales and marketing. **Why Study Pharmacy MPharm at the University of Huddersfield?** Accredited by the GPhC, this course aims to give you a strong foundational knowledge of the pharmaceutical sciences and pharmacy practice.

By your final year, you’ll take modules to help prepare you to make the transition into becoming a registered pharmacist following your foundation year training. You’ll be taught by subject experts and practising pharmacists. The University’s excellent local links with the health service mean you will be up to date on the latest pharmacy developments, and you’ll also be able to work with many other members of the multi-disciplinary healthcare team.
