School of Pharmacy

Understanding the science behind medicines and the impact they have on the human body is at the core of a pharmacy degree. At Reading our Pharmacy programme is designed with our students in mind, as well as their career goals.
We deliver an exciting and challenging curriculum using innovative and diverse teaching methods combining science with practice to ensure that our students get the most of their time with us.


"Pharmacy is a great degree which opens more opportunities than one could imagine. The Reading School of Pharmacy course in particular does a great job of teaching not only personal skills required for communication, but also the technical skills needed in the science field."
