Our Bath and Plymouth-based MPharm courses prepare you for a career as a pharmacist, with work placements in hospitals, GP surgeries, and community pharmacies, helping you decide the area that fits you best.

Placements are great opportunities to broaden your skills and decide the area of pharmacy that best fits you and your career. During your course, you’ll go on regular placements in healthcare settings, gaining hands-on experience in hospitals, GP surgeries, and community pharmacies.

Our final-year pharmacy students consistently gain high-quality Foundation Training places in a variety of sectors across the UK through the national NHS recruitment process.

This combination of skills makes our students stand out as more desirable to employers; proven year-on-year as our graduates go on to attain some of the best jobs in the UK.
