The School of Pharmacy is delighted to have once again performed so well in the UK Government's assessment of the quality of research at all UK Universities.
There were 94 entries from Schools of Pharmacy, Nursing, Dentistry and Allied Health Professions to the 2014 Research Excellence Framework. The School of Pharmacy has come joint 4th on quality of research and is the top UK Pharmacy School to be entered just as Pharmacy.
51% of our research was ranked 4* (world leading) and a further 41% as 3* (internationally excellent).
Of particular significance is that we are the only School of Pharmacy to have 100% of research at 4* in the 'Impact on Society’ category, showing that we are the most effective School in using our research to improve people’s lives through new medicines and innovation in the practice of Pharmacy as a profession.
The outstanding research conducted by our staff has a direct input to our undergraduate MPharm degrees, postgraduate MSc in Drug Discovery and Pharmaceutical Sciences and our PhD research programmes
