Bachelor
Pharmacology explores the effects of drugs on living organisms, focusing on drug discovery and development. Students will gain knowledge in drug action, laboratory techniques, and genetic influences on drug response, preparing for careers in biomedical sciences.
Pharmacology explores the effects of drugs on living organisms, and is the foundation for a career in drug discovery and development.
An in-depth understanding of pharmacological principles is essential to the safe and effective application of medicines aimed to prevent or treat disease. It is the cornerstone for a career in drug discovery and development and is highly complementary to those planning on a career in biomedical sciences.
In this major, you will gain a strong understanding of drug action against microorganisms and pharmacological management of health conditions.
You'll undertake computer-based simulations and laboratory work covering molecular, cellular and physiological responses; and modern drug analysis techniques.
You'll also learn about the dose-response relationship, toxicity, and drug metabolism and elimination; drug design and development; and how genetic variation between populations influences drug response.
This major is offered as part of our Bachelor of Biomedical Sciences.
