Hi Anon,

It's great to see that you are interested in studying Pharmacy here at UCLan. 🌹

I haven't studied the MPharm (Hons) Pharmacy course myself but I do know that this course has been named 1st
in the North West for graduate prospects according to Complete University Guide (Pharmacy and Pharmacology) 2024. UCLan has strong links with the NHS which greatly benefits students on this course as placements will take place in community and hospital settings.

If you choose to study pharmacy here at UCLan, you will be based at our Preston campus which is located right in the heart of the city surrounded by independent shops, cafes, bars and many pretty parks to relax in. Students here benefit from having great links to nearby cities with campus only a 10 minute walk from Preston train station offering easy access to Manchester and Liverpool. You've also got the beautiful Lake district only a short drive away. 🌳

Have you had chance to attend one of our open days? This is a great way for you to come and explore campus, chat with our current students and course lectures to really get a feel for what student life is like here. If you haven't had chance to visit us yet, we also run regular campus tours which you are welcome to join.

You can find dates for our next tour and book here. 😊

If you have any questions about our course or life here as a UCLan student, I'd be more than happy to help. 😊

All the best and we hope to welcome you onto campus soon.
