Pharmaceutical Analysis MSc: Course features
What this course offers you
- The Pharmaceutical Analysis course gives you a strong background in the theory of analytical techniques. You learn how to apply these techniques to complex analytical problems.
- You also have the chance to study recent trends in analytical science and the latest analytical techniques.
- The independent MSc research project gives you the chance to study an area of interest in greater depth and gain valuable research skills. Our students often find this an excellent selling point when looking for a job or promotion.
- You can choose to take it in industry or as collaborative research with other laboratories. For example, past projects have looked at:
- determining caffeine and its metabolites in human serum samples using GC-MS;
- the characterisation of sol-gel films as a potential matrix to design an optical biosensor device; and
- synthesis and use of compounds as probes for biochemical reactions.
