药理学是对药物作用的最广泛的研究，它涵盖了影响人体功能的多种化学物质，而不仅仅是药物。在头两年中，您将研究生理学，药理学和神经科学学院管理的许多核心单元，并从广泛的选择中选择其他单元，例如生物化学，分子遗传学，感染和免疫，细胞和分子医学以及哺乳动物生理学。期末单元将重点介绍药物作用的分子机制，并将您带到当前研究的最前沿。在您的最后一年中，正式的讲座被研讨会和教程所代替，而完全集成的活动计划可以培养您的个人和专业技能的转移。我们使用多种传统的教学方法（包括讲座，实践工作和教程）和创新的方法，例如，目前通过使
Pharmacology is the study of the action of drugs in the widest possible sense; it encompasses many types of chemicals that affect the functioning of the body rather than just medicines.For the first two years you will study a number of core units run by the School of Physiology, Pharmacology and Neuroscience and choose others from a wide selection, such as biochemistry, molecular genetics, infection and immunity, cellular and molecular medicine and mammalian physiology. Final-year units emphasise the molecular mechanisms of drug action and take you to the forefront of current research.In your final year, formal lectures are replaced by seminars and tutorials and a fully integrated programme of activities develops your transferable personal and professional skills.We use a wide variety of teaching approaches, which are both traditional (including lectures, practical work and tutorials) and innovative; for example our practical teaching is currently enhanced by self-directed learning using computer-assisted packages, such as eBiolabs.
