This course provides a solid foundation in chemistry coupled with specialist knowledge in advanced medicinal chemistry or biochemistry. By branching into medicinal chemistry you will apply your knowledge to the discovery, design and synthesis of new drugs for clinical use. You can explore the biochemistry of these processes, and how this leads to medical breakthroughs. You will be assessed via a combination of examinations and coursework such as laboratory reports, presentations, posters and essays to monitor your progress and provide you with regular feedback. In addition to research-led teaching from top academics in their field, you will benefit from external lectures given by pharmaceutical industry leaders. We have a specialist careers consultant for Warwick Chemistry, who will help you build your career portfolio and CV.
