药物化学（荣誉）理学士学位

通过涉足药物化学，您将把自己的知识应用于临床新药的发现，设计和合成。该学位为化学奠定了坚实的基础，并具有高级药物化学或生物化学方面的专业知识。专家模块将探索药物发现的过程，从新产品的最初概念开始，一直到发现阶段，临床试验，规模化，和生产。您可以探索这些过程的生物化学，以及这如何导致医学突破。除了该领域顶尖学者的研究指导教学外，您还将受益于制药行业领导人的外部演讲。
Chemistry is central to solving humanity's most pressing problems - climate change, renewable energy, sustainable materials, and eliminating hunger and disease. Our chemistry degrees help develop the practical, analytical, numerical, and logical reasoning skills you need to help solve these global challenges – and also offers an exciting route into a wide range of future career paths.In this course, you can satisfy your curiosity for medicinal chemistry with tailored modules later in the course, providing insights into the drug discovery and pharmaceutical pipeline.Course overviewThrough Chemistry we can tackle the energy crisis, discover new medicines or develop new materials for 21st century needs, from polymers for drug delivery to more efficient batteries.Our flexible undergraduate Chemistry degree is delivered by one of the UK's top Chemistry departments, which is ranked highly for both teaching and research. It provides a comprehensive programme of study to prepare you for a lab-based scientific career – but also helps build the practical, numeracy, logical and analytical skills that are valued by top graduate recruiters.Years One and Two will set you up with a solid foundation in state-of-the-art chemistry. Here, you will build the experimental skills and theoretical knowledge across the core branches of modern chemistry, and learn how chemical scientists understand and shape the material world around us.By branching into medicinal chemistry you will apply your chemical knowledge to the discovery, design and synthesis of new drugs for clinical use. This degree provides a solid foundation in chemistry coupled with specialist knowledge in advanced medicinal chemistrybiochemistry.Specialist modules will explore the process of medicinal drug discovery, starting from the initial concept of a new product, to the discovery stage, clinical trials, scale-up, and production. You can explore the biochemistry of these processes, and how this leads to medical breakthroughs. In addition to research-led teaching from top academics in their field, you will benefit from external lectures given by pharmaceutical industry leaders.We offer the distinctive opportunity to transfer across degree programmes, dependent on good academic progress, to include study abroad or industrial placements in the UK and beyond.Where our Chemistry degree can take youOur graduates are active in fields as diverse as:Chemical ScienceSustainable materialsDrug Discovery and Pharmaceutical DevelopmentLaboratory Technical Services and LeadershipPublic HealthBusiness and Financial AnalysisInvestment ManagementManagement ConsultancyAcademic Research and TeachingMedicine and paramedicSecondary School TeachingOur graduates have gone on to work for employers such as:AmazonDeloitteGSKHMRCHSBCKPMGNHS TrustOvo EnergyRoyal Society of ChemistryUnileverVertex Pharmaceuticals.
