What to expect from an Offer Holder Day at the University of Plymouth campus

No one knows what it’s like to be a student studying the Bath MPharm at Plymouth better than our current students. They’ll help answer your questions and chat about their experiences.

Campus life isn't just about studying. There is so much to do and see in Plymouth, known as "Britain's Ocean City". The main campus is around a mile from the seafront and after lectures you can unwind in the Barbican, Plymouth's old port which is home to a vibrant mix of historical buildings, cafes and bars. If you visit us in person, there will be the opportunity to take a guided bus tour of the city.

'I loved the look of the course that Bath was running, I knew Bath was ranked highly and had excellent future destination opportunities. I really wanted to live by the sea, so the opportunity to do the course in Plymouth was ideal for me.' —Katie Prickett, MPharm Plymouth

What our students think

The best people to tell you about studying Pharmacy with us are our students.

'I decided to study Pharmacy due to my passion for Biology and Chemistry in school. Pursuing Pharmacy allows me to deepen my understanding of these disciplines while developing clinical skills to deliver patient-centered care and contribute meaningfully to community welfare.' — Bernard Fowler, MPharm Plymouth

'I have wanted to study Pharmacy for many years, and I'd always considered the Bath MPharm to produce some of the highest standard of pharmacists. However, as a mature student who is settled in south Devon, I never saw travelling away for study as an option, so I jumped at the opportunity to apply when this established degree course came to a University local to me.' — Joe Vincent, MPharm Plymouth
