This involves design and synthesis of novel drug candidates, to their biochemical effects, testing regimes and regulatory and ethical considerations. Graduates are equipped with a unique and wide harmony of skills, from fundamental chemistry through to relevant pharmacology and molecular biology skills. This puts graduates in high demand in local and global pharmaceutical companies involved in modern drug design. In addition, the multidisciplinary nature of the program means that graduates will also be highly marketable within other science-based industries and related fields.
