Advantages: Courses offered, links to industry

Disadvantages: Crappy lecturers, location, image

I shall try to stay objective as I do have some pride in what I did and acheived. I undertook a Pharm Sci degree in the late 90's ( sounds like light years ago)while studing in Woolwich. I think back then muggers, rapist and arsonists were also afraid of this place. Chatham altough remote is a vast improvement but for that reason it might as well be located in Guantanamo. The course on the whole was good but some of the lecturers were a buch of big time Charlies. (lets call them Marty and Babs) These are People who probably never did a days of hardwork in the real world and spoke as though the UK pharmaceutical industry was about to collapse due to their departure. There were some lecturers who gave me low marks but what I learnt in their class was and is what I apply to date in the real world. The down side to this degree was that the lecturers were to some extent afraid to voice their knowledge in classes which contained students who worked in the pharmaceutical industry as I assume they knew what they taught was either incorrect or irrelevant. The result was that if you had no connections in the industry and even though you were to produce Noble prize material, it would always get marked down whereas the connected students some of whom produced some real eye watering crap work always got the top marks.

Summary: Apart from the Big time Charlies, the Sciences school is ok.
