    This is such an informative video- thank you so much for making it!
    This has made me want to go even more than I did already, which is both a blessing and a curse- it fits every criteria I'm looking for but it's 300 miles away! Looks like it's time to learn to drive...

      Hi Miriam! I´m really glad to hear that and I hope that if you do come you love it as much as I do! Don´t worry about the distance! And like I said in the video, Aberdeen´s great for students, no need for a car you can just walk everywhere!

    Thank you for making this- I'm thinking about studying abroad at Aberdeen for a semester from the US so your videos are incredibly helpful!! My other option is Univ of Strathclyde but I'm currently leaning more towards Aberdeen. The only thing that's holding me back is travel- how difficult and expensive is it to get from Aberdeen to major cities across the UK? I'd think that'd be easier to do from Glasgow but I could be wrong!

It's usually a small cohort of students so especially in the final two years of the degree it'll be quite a small group for teaching which is good 🙂

      Hi! Yeah you can do an MSc in Clinical Pharmacology here! There's more information on it here if you're interested: www.abdn.ac.uk/study/postgraduate-taught/degree-programmes/37/clinical-pharmacology/
      There are loads of things you can do if you do an MSc in Clinical Pharmacology. And there are loads of options either inside or even outside the field. I think there is some good information on this website here: www.prospects.ac.uk/careers-advice/what-can-i-do-with-my-degree/pharmacology
      Another thing you could check out is the website of the British Pharmacological Society (BPS) here: www.bps.ac.uk/careers-in-pharmacology/where-can-pharmacology-take-me
      That also gives you loads of different ideas of what to do with your degree 🙂
      In fact, if you are not a member already, you should definitely consider BPS membership. It is free for undergraduate members and the society is great for keeping up to date with all things pharmacology and there are always a lot of opportunities highlighted in terms of careers. If you join you can join the society community and networks, for example the undergraduate and early career pharmacologists network. I am actually a network leader for the undergraduate network, so if you want to join or have any questions how to do so please let me know!
