Our Company’s Involvement in Education
Norbrook® is partnering with the University of Ulster to establish an endowed Chair in Pharmaceutical Science with a £1 million donation.
The donation will establish the Norbrook Laboratories Professorship within the new Department of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University's Coleraine campus and will directly contribute to the University's Biomedical Sciences Research Institute which is ranked in the top two in the UK in the most recent national Research Assessment Exercise.
Southern Education College
Norbrook® offers an annual £5000 bursary and two runner-up prizes of £3000 to the best full time student at the Southern Education College. Martin Murdock presented these awards on behalf of Norbrook in August at a prestigious Graduation Ceremony held at the Armagh City Hotel.
