You also have access to practice-based teaching facilities, where you can put what you’ve learnt on the course into practice. Our pharmacy practice suite contains a range of clinical teaching facilities, including consultation rooms, where you can role-play encounters with patients, or work with our SimMan 3G, a life-like robotic patient programmed to have a range of simulated medical conditions.

The only school of pharmacy in the South West, we have strong and valued relationships with local NHS Trusts in Bath, Bristol and Swindon, as well as with leading national community pharmacy chains (Boots, Lloyds Chemists, Day Lewis pharmacies).

We have a reputation for producing well-rounded and confident students, who are academically strong. They achieve high pass rates in the mandatory registration assessment set by the General Pharmaceutical Council, and our final year MPharm students are consistently gaining high-quality Foundation Training places in a variety of sectors across the UK through the national NHS recruitment process.

This combination of skills is what make our students stand out as more desirable to employers, which is proven year-on-year as our graduates go on to attain some of the best jobs in the UK.
