Pharmaceutical Science with Regulatory Affairs Kingston University London

Regulatory Affairs is an area of growing opportunity in the pharmaceutical industry. It’s responsible for ensuring that new drugs are safe for the public, correctly evaluated and their use is properly regulated. 

With a focus on public health and the introduction of drugs, this course will teach you how to produce legal applications for new drug licences, deal with different regulatory authorities and ensure drug safety. 

This course also offers a practical understanding of the pharmaceutical industry. You'll explore different sources of medicine, how they work and how they are made, packaged and administered.
