Presentación

In this degree you will gain a sound foundation in chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology and analytical biochemical techniques. A core component of your final year is a project in which you will undertake original research of your own under staff guidance. The general principles of biochemistry and cell biology and human physiology are established at Credit Level 4. Molecular genetics, the chemistry of proteins and other macromolecules and metabolism are developed at Credit Levels 5 and 6 while a number of options are also offered, allowing you to pursue your specific interests, including recombinant DNA technology, immunology, medical genetics and drug development

Objetivos

Biochemistry is a pivotal degree discipline in the modern world and a fundamental element of all the biological sciences. Biochemistry is the study of living systems at the molecular level, and biochemists study the ways in which cells and organisms are formed. This involves examining the structure and function of molecules found in living systems, as well as experimental investigations of the properties of biological systems ranging in complexity from cell extracts to whole organisms, and elucidating the roles of specific genes in the cells in which they are expressed.

This course will give you the skills and knowledge to establish yourself in a range of careers related to biochemistry, including the pharmaceutical, diagnostic and biotechnology industries. The foundation of the course is our buoyant research in diverse areas of biochemistry including plant biochemistry, biotechnology, membrane transport, protein structure, cancer biology and molecular diagnostics and therapeutics.
