The MSc Pharmaceutical Chemistry is aimed at graduates with a BSc in Chemistry or closely related degree who wish to tailor their expertise towards jobs in the pharmaceutical industry. It will also appeal to graduates with a BSc Pharmaceutical Science who wish to pursue an Masters qualification in their field. The main part of the postgraduate pharmaceutical chemistry degree is a work-based learning module in which students can undertake a research project, either in USW's specialist labs or possibly as part of an industry-based work placement. Companies that have provided USW students with both placements and formal employment include Nanopharm, PCI Services, Zorba Foods, Simbec, Midatech, Animax UK, Dow Corning, Ortho Clinical Diagnostic, 3M Healthcare, Cogent Power and Bob Martin to name a few. Throughout the master's course, learners will study formulation and medicinal chemistry, as well as industry specific topics such as quality assurance and management and a Prince 2 qualification, giving them the advanced knowledge, skills and experience to compete for sought after roles in the pharmaceutical sector.
