The North Wales Medical School is the focus for medical, biomedical, and pharmaceutical education and research at Bangor University. The school has a portfolio of programmes that continues to expand. These include the BSc in Pharmacology (first year of intake, 2023), Bangor University’s independent Medicine degree from 2024, and Pharmacy degree from 2025 (subject to accreditation). The School’s research centres span medicines evaluation and optimisation, primary and palliative care, clinical trials, health economics, and cancer biology and pharmacology.
The Project
We are looking for an outstanding individual to contribute to the development and delivery of a newly planned MPharm programme at Bangor University. The new programme will align with the GPhC’s new Standards for Initial Education and Training of Pharmacists. The GPhC accreditation process has recently been exceptionally successful at Step 2 and is moving to Step 3, which now permits us to recruit students for an initial September 2025 intake. This is a time of real opportunity for pharmacy education in North Wales and we are looking for an experienced educator with expertise in pharmaceutics, drug delivery and formulation to assist in the development and delivery of the new MPharm curriculum. You will be a passionate educator who seeks the excitement of being part of a pioneering team.
Whilst expertise in any aspect of pharmaceutics and drug delivery is welcomed, additional experience of pharmacy practice or working with the Professional Body (GPhC) on MPharm curriculum development or programme recognition is particularly desirable.
