Biochemistry with Foundation

About this course

Biochemistry examines the chemical processes that sustain life at the molecular level. It sits at the intersection of biology and chemistry, providing the molecular understanding of how genes are expressed and regulated, how proteins are made and function, how cells metabolise energy, and how these processes are disrupted in disease. As the biological and pharmaceutical sciences have become increasingly dependent on molecular-level knowledge, biochemistry has become a foundational discipline for drug discovery, diagnostics, biotechnology and our understanding of health and disease. At the University of Westminster you will study biochemistry over four years of full-time study, beginning with a foundation year that builds the scientific foundations in chemistry, biology and mathematics before you progress to the degree content. This foundation year makes the programme well suited to stud
