About the course

Molecular biology, genetic engineering and biotechnology are at the core of this innovative degree. 

　　You will learn how to combine the growing fields of biochemistry and genetics to develop revolutionary medical treatments, such as gene based personalised medicine, as well as understanding the genetic control of cell behaviour, human development and pathogen interactions.

　　You will develop advanced skills in the lab with practical experience from year one. You will be trained by scientists who are leaders in the fields of biochemistry and molecular biology. They will help you graduate with the core skills needed to be successful in your future career, either as a laboratory scientist or in careers where your scientific training will be welcome such as data analyst, patent law and teaching.

　　Through optional modules and research projects, you can tailor the course to focus on the specific areas that interest you. Our first-year content gives you the option to refine your biochemistry degree path at the end of year one to Biochemistry BSc (C700) or Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine BSc (C741).
