About this course

Develop hands on laboratory skills essential for biochemical research. Investigate the molecular mechanisms of disease and how biological systems respond to drug interactions. Build the knowledge needed to thrive in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and wider life sciences sectors. Develop hands on laboratory skills essential for biochemical research. Investigate the molecular mechanisms of disease and how biological systems respond to drug interactions. Build the knowledge needed to thrive in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and wider life sciences sectors. Biochemistry sits at the interface between the life sciences and chemistry, providing a broad education that allows you to explore the molecular mechanisms underpinning life. Our BSc (Hons) Biochemistry course is built upon a strong foundation of core scientific disciplines, including molecular and cellular biology, organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry, as well as analytical sciences. As you progress through the course, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how diseases develop at the molecular level and how drugs interact with biological systems, insights that are particularly valuable in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. You'll explore applied areas such as bioinformatics, in silico protein-protein interaction studies, and bioprocessing, all of which are increasingly essential in modern biochemical research and development. A key focus of the course is the development of laboratory skills, with practical sessions embedded across nearly all modules. You’ll be trained to conduct experiments, anal
