Kris (BSc Pharmacology)

After graduating from Bristol it is easy to say that my time here was enjoyable. The Pharmacology course provided many opportunities to explore different aspects of the subject, especially in the final year with research projects. The practical lab sessions were always great due to the relaxed environment and provided a great place to quickly acquire skills that are essential to understanding the connection between theoretical and practical science.

The lecturers are highly supportive when it comes to applying for internships, post-graduate study and post-graduate work and are always encouraging their students to think beyond material presented in lectures to form their own opinions. The course doesn’t just setup up individuals with the knowledge and practical ability required for a job in science, but also provides individuals with highly transferable skills which are highly sought after by others. Following on from this degree I am starting my PhD in Pharmacology, which I don't feel I would have applied for without the inspiration I recieved from taking this course.
