Kickstart your career in Pharmacology with the Pharmacology BSc (Hons) degree course from Kingston University. This course meets the core curriculum requirements set out by the British Pharmacological Society (BPS), the professional association for pharmacologists and one of the leading pharmacological societies in the world. It is also accredited by the Royal Society of Biology (RBS).

The Doctoral Program of Pharmacology and Toxicology is focused on the study of drug interactions with the organism in terms of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and drug toxicity. Students of this program extend the basic theoretical knowledge of pharmacology and toxicology and gain expertise in experimental work with state-of-the-art methodologies of molecular and cellular pharmacology and genetics - in vitro, in situ, ex vivo and in vivo. Depending on the specialization of the study, graduates are experts in various aspects of pharmacology, including mechanisms of drug effects, drug interactions, metabolism and excretion. The Study Program of Pharmacology and Toxicology is suitable not only for those interested in experimental research but also for those who wish to continue in clinical practice. The standard length of study is four years.

Medical pharmacology is a basic experimental biomedical field that deals with the kinetics and dynamics of drugs summarizes current knowledge in this area, and solves experimental problems of current pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, drug interactions, drug side effects. The results are the basis for clinical pharmacology and pharmacotherapy. It is a study program without specialization.

Learn about the science behind drugs and medicines, their effects on living systems, and their role in treating disease on our Medical Pharmacology degree course.

The development of safe and effective new drugs is a challenging and rewarding field. Our forward-thinking Pharmacology MSc equips you with a broad understanding of drug discovery and development, focusing on the mechanisms of drug action at the molecular level; the treatment of human disease; and the latest cell, molecular and genomic technologies used in pharmacology. You gain an in-depth understanding of individual examples of modern drug research and development before specialising in one research area of interest through your laboratory research project.

MSc Drug Toxicology and Safety Pharmacology full-time Master's programme provides a comprehensive overview of drug safety practices within the drug development process. It addresses key aspects of preclinical drug evaluation through the study of Drug discovery and development, Safety pharmacology, Mechanisms of drug-induced toxicities, Regulatory affairs and Bioanalytical Sciences.

Pharmacology and toxicology are sciences that study the mechanisms of mutual interactions of substances and medicinal preparations with biologic systems and observe their both favorable and adverse impact on the organism. The final goal is the use of this knowledge in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of human and veterinary conditions. A great advantage of the study of pharmacology and toxicology is the close interconnection of the theoretic field with all clinical specialties that perform therapy, prevention, and diagnosis. The study program in Pharmacology and Toxicology is therefore suitable not only for those interested in experimental research but also for those seeking their prospective careers in clinical work. The main bias of the study program, nevertheless, is experimental, at both the pre-clinical and clinical levels. The goal of the doctoral program Pharmacology and Toxicology is to train specialists with deep knowledge in the areas of clinical as well experimental pharmacology and toxicology. This envelops knowledge of wide areas of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, effects, and toxicity of medications, including the knowledge of properties of particular forms of medicinal preparations. The program is carried out without any specialization.

UC Irvine's Master of Science in Pharmacology is a 100% online program designed for working professionals who are interested in advancing in their careers or enhancing their competitiveness for admission to other degree programs, including PhD, PharmD, MD, and more.

The study of pharmacology and toxicology prepares students for a career in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry or the research and development sector. It also provides a competitive edge on all pre-professional tracks, whether you want to pursue medical, veterinary, or pharmacy school. As an undergraduate student, you will attain a high-level understanding of advanced sciences that will set you apart from other post-baccalaureate or pre-professional students. The curriculum prepares you with courses, such as Basic Pharmacology, Principles of Toxicology, and Analytical Methods in Pharmacology & Toxicology, that you would otherwise only be introduced to in a professional program.

This MSc program in Experimental Pharmacology and Therapeutics is designed to give students a strong foundation in understanding how drugs work within the body and how they can be developed to treat various diseases. The course covers key topics like…

BSc Medical Pharmacology is the study of how drugs and medicines work at cellular and sub-cellular levels to produce useful and sometimes harmful effects. This degree aims to impart a sound mechanistic understanding of bioactive substances, particularly those used for the treatment of human diseases. Such extensive study will provide you with skills attractive to academia and wider industries for posts in biomedical research and product development.

Pharmacology and Toxicology are research topics that investigate the mechanisms of interaction of substances and medicaments with biological systems and track their positive and negative consequences for the organism. The final goal is to use this knowledge in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of human and animal diseases. The research subject encompasses the study of both processes from the molecular level to affect the entire body and also research into clinical practice in patients. The determination of the latest research methods allows for interdisciplinary research at the receptor level, messenger systems, and transmission of genetic information. Created new disciplines such as pharmaco-biochemistry, pharmaco-genetics, pharmaco-economy, and others. The big advantage of pharmacology and toxicology studies is a close connection of the theoretical field with all the clinical fields that perform the treatment, prevention, and diagnostic. The study program in pharmacology and toxicology is therefore suitable not only for those interested in experimental research but also for those who plan their clinical work in the future. The study program is carried out in collaboration with the Institute of Experimental Medicine, the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, and the Institute of Physiology of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic.

The structure of the PhD in Pharmacology and Pharmaceutical Sciences of the Medical Faculty is similar to those of most European and American universities. The doctoral (PhD) degree, as the highest qualification attainable at university, is confer- red by the University of Pécs on those who have given evidence of having acquired sufficient practical skills and theoretical knowledge to conduct scientific research independently.

A master's degree in Veterinary Medicine (MMedVet) is a clinical specialty degree at NQF-level 9 of 360 credits to be completed in 3 years of full-time study as part of a residential training program. The training program consists of clinical work, coursework, culminating in a multi-component examination and a research project resulting in a mini-dissertation and subsequent publications as required for SAVC registration as a specialist.
