Biochemistry

About this programme

Are you fascinated by the molecular fundamentals of life, and the chemical processes occurring in living organisms? Biochemistry is a science which seeks to understand how cellular activity determines organism level outcome. You will learn how the regulation of gene expression and protein function controls every aspect of cell behaviour, from cell division and cancer to cellular metabolism, obesity, protein degradation and neurodegenerative disease. This teaching will ensure you graduate Biochemistry BSc with the core skills needed to be successful in your future profession, with potential careers from laboratory scientist to data analyst, patent law and teaching.

MSci degrees are undergraduate-level courses which last for four years and have an integrated master's qualification. They are the equivalent to a BSc plus a master's level qualification. The MSci provides additional intensive laboratory research a
