This course will help students understand the molecular processes that control life, from molecules (such as DNA and proteins) and cells, to the complex structures of whole organisms. In the final year, students will select from options such as Advanced Analytical Science, Clinical Chemistry and Haematology, and Chemotherapy of Infectious and Neoplastic Diseases. Choosing a specialist topic that inspires them, they'll have the opportunity to work on an independent research project. Students will acquire the knowledge and technical skills to work in a wide variety of roles, including those in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. They'll also be able to go on to do further research and contribute to the understanding of how biochemistry underpins all human life. This course is accredited by the Royal Society of Biology (RSB). They'll receive one year's free associate membership once they graduate.
