Preston, United Kingdom University of Central Lancashire Full time

The University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) is a global university with an outstanding reputation for producing highly skilled graduates and world-leading research. As one of the UK’s largest universities, with a staff and student community approaching 38,000, UCLan is Lancashire’s largest provider of graduate level qualifications.

The University’s School of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences has an impressive and longstanding reputation for exceptional teaching and research. It offers a broad portfolio of undergraduate and postgraduate courses taught by internationally recognised, research-active scientists and biomedical scientists. Key areas of research expertise include drugs of addiction, nanotechnology, neuroscience, and personalised medicine. The School provides students with real-world learning experiences inside state-of-the-art facilities which reflect the environments they can expect to encounter in their careers, whether within professional science or healthcare.
