The master's programme in Drug Discovery and Safety programme combines aspects of chemistry, pharmacy, medicine, genetics and toxicology. The programme takes a multidisciplinary approach to develop new drugs. It makes use of the latest systems and developments in the fields of Computer-aided Drug Design, Synthetic Organic Chemistry, Bio-analytical Sciences, Molecular Biology and Pharmacology, and Molecular Toxicology. The Master's programme in Drug Discovery and Safety trains you as a specialist in one aspect of drug development. You will also acquire extensive knowledge of other relevant disciplines and you will learn to work effectively in a multidisciplinary team. The challenges and opportunities of our era ask for bright scientists that are willing look beyond their own centre of expertise. Graduates in Drug Discovery and Safety have excellent employment prospects and can generally expect to earn a good salary. This Master's opens up a whole range of career opportunities. The most obvious are in medicinal research, the pharmaceuticals industry and hospital laboratories, but there are also plenty of opportunities with research institutes and government inspection agencies.
