MA/MS in Pharmacology and Toxicology

Toxicology examines how chemical, physical, and biological agents can harm people, animals, and ecosystems, with the practical goal of protecting public health. This master's degree trains students in that field through the university's pharmacy and health sciences college. Graduates are prepared for work in research laboratories, universities, regulatory agencies, and private industry. The college additionally runs a doctoral route with a toxicology focus inside pharmaceutical sciences, so some students use the master's as a stepping stone to further study. Coursework and laboratory experience help students understand how substances act in the body and how risks are measured and managed. The degree suits science graduates who want a specialised credential, whether they are changing direction or deepening existing expertise, for safety assessment, drug development, or environmental health careers.
