Type of module:

Summary module description:

To provide students with an appreciation of the practice of active pharmaceutical discovery and development from a practicing experts perspective.


Aims:

To look at the role of the pharmaceutical chemist as is practiced in an industrial setting. Lectures will cover selected aspects of the process of drug discovery from hit to lead and beyond; Please note, topic coverage may vary year to year due to availability of the experts delivering the material.


Assessable learning outcomes:

Students should be able to appreciate how pharmaceutical chemistry is practiced in industry and the wide range of specialists that are involved in the discovery and development process.


Additional outcomes:

Students will improve their IT skills and communication skills through written assignments, discussions and presentations.


Outline content:

Lecturers on the industrial applications of Chemistry (20)



These lectures will present aspects of the application of Chemistry in modern industry. It will be taught by industrial visitors and will cover various types of chemistry. Topics will include pharmaceutical chemistry, detergents, computer modelling, industrial catalysis and the prevention of pollution.
