Bachelor of Science in Pharmacology

at University of Bristol - Clifton Campus United Kingdom

This course combines politics and international relations with the study of Italian. This provides a valuable skill set ideally tailored to the increasingly globalised workplace.

You will study the politics of individual countries and governments and the relationships between countries, communities and individuals.

Politics is organised around three themes:

• Political theory
• Comparative and national politics
• International relations.

In Italian you will study a combination of language and culture units. Today, Italy's innovative contributions to design, technology and fashion mean that it is a major, global commercial force.

You will spend your third year abroad, enabling you to refine your language skills and cultural knowledge and gain valuable work experience. For further details on year abroad opportunities, please see Global Opportunities.

Bristol has an enviable record for its research both in politics and in Italian culture. Both schools encourage strong synergy between research and teaching resulting in a vibrant learning environment.

Criminology is a multidisciplinary subject comprising elements of sociology, law, social and public policy, history, psychology and philosophy. BSc Criminology with Study Abroad is an exciting course that gives you the opportunity to study criminology within a broader framework of policy studies. You will also have the opportunity to study at a partner overseas university in your third year.

The course will provide you with an understanding of crime and justice and related social harms and an analysis of public policy interventions that contribute towards a fairer, safer and harm-free society.

The course follows a similar structure to the three-year BSc Criminology. In your first and second years you will take a range of mandatory and optional units that introduce you to the interdisciplinary study of criminology and justice.

You will spend your third year at one of our partner institutions overseas, where you can take criminology or broader social sciences, arts and humanities subjects. For more information about studying overseas see Global Opportunities.

You will return to Bristol for the final year of the course, which is identical to the third year of the BSc Criminology, and will complete a dissertation and further criminology-related units.

This four-year degree combines years one, two and four of our MEng Aerospace Engineering with the chance to spend your third year at an English-speaking partner university overseas.

The first two years cover underpinning material organised into three streams:

• Aerodynamics
• Dynamics and control
• Structures and materials.

Specialised from day one, these subjects are taught with aerospace applications and examples. Further material, such as space applications and aviation operations, is covered in specialist units.

You will also learn skills that cross all three streams, such as computing, systems engineering and design.

If you achieve the required grades in your first two years you will spend your third year at a European institution where your studies will match the third year at Bristol.

You will return to Bristol for your fourth year and choose from a range of options. Some options relate to particular application areas, such as helicopter aerodynamics, space systems or wind power. Others study particular technologies, such as composites analysis or experimental aerodynamics, or you can choose to undertake a research project.

This course combines the challenging and broad academic content of our aerospace engineering degrees with an overseas dimension which reflects the pan-European nature of the modern aerospace industry.

This four-year MSci Physics course includes a year of gaining hands-on paid experience in the industry. A year spent in the industry can be a life-changing and rewarding experience. It can help you hone your skills in project management, teamwork and communication and provide invaluable insights into commercial pressures and real-world applied science.

Previously, our students have recently worked for The Culham Centre for Fusion Energy, Airbus, JP Morgan, Sharp, Rolls-Royce and the Science and Technology Facilities Council.

You will continue to study core physics via distance learning during your year in the industry in readiness for your final-year project or dissertation back at the University. Our students' final-year projects address questions at the frontier of our research fields and the most successful have been published in scientific journals.

Our physics graduates have an excellent record of employment, a testament to the value that employers place on the transferable skills that you gain on this course.

This exciting professionally accredited four-year course gives you the opportunity to do a professional placement in your third year. It develops the attributes needed for a wide range of accounting, consulting and managerial career paths. It aims to equip you, as a future organisational decision maker, with the ability to interpret, assess and communicate financial and non-financial data.

During the first two years you will develop sound knowledge and understanding of accounting practices, financial management techniques, and contemporary theories and practices of management. The placement year will enhance your understanding of the areas of accounting and finance encountered in your studies. You will also develop an understanding of how an organisation operates and learn to take on responsibility within a team.

You will return to Bristol for your final year to study the disciplines of accounting and management in more depth. Beyond the core units, you can specialise by choosing from an evolving range of accounting and management units, for example Auditing, Financial Statement Analysis, Operations Management, or International Human Resource Management.

This course is available by transfer; you can apply to BSc Accounting and Management and register your interest to add a professional placement once you have joined us. Placement opportunities are based on first-year examination results and a successful application to a participating employer.

This course is ideal for students interested in learning more about how to use numbers and data within politics. It provides training in practical and analytical skills, which will enhance your career prospects and provide you with a strong platform for postgraduate study. No prior knowledge of statistical techniques is required.

About two thirds of your studies will follow the single honours BSc Politics and International Relations course where you will acquire core knowledge in your subject. You will study the politics of individual countries and governments and the relationships between countries, communities and individuals. You will become familiar with different views and methods of analysis, learning to apply and evaluate them.

The remaining third of your course will provide interdisciplinary training in quantitative methods. In year one of the quantitative pathway we discuss how numbers and data are used to tell convincing stories in the media and social research. We consider what is meant by segregation and how it can be mapped and measured. Year two offers practical classes in social statistics and applied data analysis, which will develop your skills in numeracy and analysis and enable you to undertake your own individual research project in an area of quantitative social science in year three.
