The department participates in the undergraduate and graduate programmes of the Radboud University Medical Centre (medicine, biomedical sciences, molecular mechanisms of disease, dentistry), the Faculty of Science (molecular life sciences, chemistry) and the HAN University of Applied Sciences (nurse practitioners and physician assistants).
The department holds responsibility for an MSc programme in toxicology and national/European postgraduate certification in clinical pharmacology, toxicology, and pharmacology. Contributions range from basic pharmacology and toxicology to medicinal chemistry, clinical pharmacology and pharmacotherapy.
The department offers ample opportunities for students to participate in research. For specific projects see the website or contact our internship co-ordinator at j.koenderink@pharmtox.umcn.nl.
