Pharmacology
UBC Pharmacology emphasizes the experimental and laboratory aspects of pharmacology through the ability to search for information, design appropriate experiments, and carry out experiments individually. When Pharmacology students participate in UBC Science Co-op, they have the opportunity to advance their studies through placements that incorporate an exciting and diverse set of lab skills, research experience, and industry experience. There are many specialties within the general discipline of pharmacology, and being part of UBC Science Co-op provides a foundation from which students are well-prepared and best able to achieve success after graduation.
