The School laboratories have modern instrumentation (HPLC, GC, spectro-photometry) and there is ready access to major equipment through the Central Science Laboratory (including GC/MS, GC-FTIR, NMR). All offices are equipped with computers which are networked for electronic communication both with the University and around the world. This includes electronic mail and database access, with Current Contents(r) on line.

There are specialist libraries available to the School of Pharmacy: the Clinical Library located at the Clinical School in Hobart and the Science Library on the Sandy Bay campus, which hold a good range of journals and provide excellent search facilities including Index Medicus on CD-Rom.

Being of medium size, the University of Tasmania lends itself to interdisciplinary research and many of the School's studies involve collaboration with either clinical departments (mostly at the Royal Hobart Hospital) or other university departments (Central Science Laboratory, Mathematics, Chemistry, Medicine, Psychology, Geography and Environmental Studies, Physiology), and other universities (University of Queensland, James Cook University). The large number of co-authored papers reflects this extensive collaboration in research.
