Undergraduate Teaching

The Department of Cell Physiology and Pharmacology is heavily involved with teaching in the School of Biological Sciences. Nine courses are convened by members of the Department and we also contribute to another. These modules can be taken by students studying for a BSc Biological Sciences Degree, or by students studying for any of the named degrees. In the majority of cases students register for some, or all of these courses if they intend to graduate with a BSc (Physiology with Pharmacology) or if they wish to have a BSc Biological Sciences with a Physiology/Pharmacology bias. Some of the more common course modules are as follows:

	First Semester	Second Semester
Year 1	none	BS1006 Introduction to Cellular and Systems Physiology
Year 2	BS2013 Physiology and Pharmacology I	BS2014 Physiology and Pharmacology II BS2060 Research Skills - this is a compulsory module
Year 3	BS3054 Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology BS3055 Molecular and Cellular Neuroscience	BS3033 Brain and Behaviour BS3056 Cellular Physiology of the Cardiovascular System BS3057 Understanding Disease - An Integrated Approach

These are only a small selection of all of the modules available within the School of Biological Sciences. For further information see Biological Sciences Modules.

Postgraduate Teaching

Currently, 25 postgraduate students are working towards a degree of Ph.D. within the Department, which has been successful in attracting regular funding from the Research Councils (MRC 'A' rated), The Wellcome Trust, The British Heart Foundation and the Pharmaceutical Industry. Research programmes in the department also include MRes students, final year undergraduate project students and intercalated BSc students.
