The UCL School of Pharmacy (formerly The School of Pharmacy, University of London) is a pharmacy school located in London, United Kingdom and a school of the Faculty of Life Sciences of University College London (UCL).
The School was founded by the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain in 1842 as the College of the Pharmaceutical Society and became a school of the University of London in 1926. It was renamed The School of Pharmacy in 1949 when it became independent of the Pharmaceutical Society and was incorporated into the University of London as a constituent college.

Pharmaceutical and Biological Chemistry is the largest Departments at the School, and the research conducted there is very wide-ranging. Much of this research is focused in cancer, natural products and phytomedicines, molecular neurosciences and biopharmaceutical analysis.
Departmental staff help teach the undergraduate MPharm degree in the areas of drug discovery, medicinal chemistry, pharmaceutical chemistry and pharmacognosy/medicinal plants, and an MSc in Pharmacognosy is to be offered for the first time this year.
Pharmacology is one of the oldest departments of pharmacology in the UK. The Department has played a major role in the development of Pharmacology in the UK and many pharmacologists who trained here are to be found in academies and in industries all over the world. The research focuses on the nervous system, and a wide range of approaches are used to study normal brain function and the causes of many neurological and psychiatric diseases.
The Department of Pharmaceutics is home to a wide range of research activities, such as in Materials Science and Processing and Clinical Pharmaceutical Science.
Their research in Materials Science and Processing is centred on the fundamental properties of materials and their adaptation to optimize processing and enhance drug delivery. They have many joint ventures, such as in the Centre for Paediatric Pharmacy Research, a joint venture with Great Ormond Street Hospital and the Institute of Child Health, and in the Clinical Pharmaceutics with University College Hospitals and Camden and Islington's NHS Trust.
