Module Overview:
The entire curriculum for year 1 of MPharm Pharmacy is taught in this module. This single module approach to delivery ensures we integrate the science and practice through all aspects of learning and development. Year 1 topics include the underpinning sciences (anatomy and physiology, basic principles of pharmacology, cells and biomacromolecules, principles of medicinal chemistry) and a number of patient-focused systems including Blood, the Gastrointestinal system, and the Peripheral Nervous System. The application of knowledge to practice forms a continuous strand through this level of study, both on campus and on placement.
