Embedding Interdisciplinarity: Developing a Generic Undergraduate EBL Team Project Module
Global and societal issues are best addressed by
interdisciplinary teams. This requires graduates to be able to communicate their knowledge and skills across interdisciplinary boundaries. Building on previous work, this project will develop an undergraduate interdisciplinary EBL module which will be open to all disciplines across the university. 24 students from 5 disciplines will work together and provide feedback on their experiences of the module so as to identify institutional issues, including support for WebCT.

Application of Chemical Knowledge to the Clinical Understanding of Medicines
The aim of this project is to encourage pharmacy students to take an integrated approach to their learning across the subject areas of this multi-disciplinary degree. The objectives are for groups of pharmacy students to select a therapeutic area and select four drugs, complete an information retrieval and processing exercise and apply knowledge of their chemical properties to appreciate their clinical effectiveness. The desired outcome is the development of generic skills (databases, IT, teamwork) and enthusiasm for self-learning which will support them through their degree and in a career committed to CPD.
