Course content

Pharmacokinetics is essential for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of clinical drugs. It examines what happens to a medicine once inside the body, how it is absorbed, distributed, metabolised and eliminated. As a crucial stage in drug development and delivery, pharmacokinetics underpins the creation of safe, effective treatments for a wide range of illnesses and diseases.

From drug discovery to formulation sciences, Aston’s Pharmacokinetics MSc develops your expertise in research methods and critical thinking, preparing you for careers in both academia and industry. You’ll develop training in fundamental and advanced pharmacokinetics, supported by practical experience in in-vitro techniques relevant to pharmaceutical research. You’ll also gain hands-on expertise with cutting-edge pharmacokinetic software tools, widely used across the pharmaceutical industry, regulatory agencies and hospitals worldwide, equipping you with a skill set highly valued by employers in pharmaceutical development and clinical sciences.

You will develop advanced knowledge, practical skills and technical expertise you need to launch a successful career in the pharmaceutical industry, clinical sciences, or related healthcare sectors
