Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)/Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology - Dual Degree
Program Overview
Students can undertake a five-year full-time double degree leading to the award of the degrees of Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) and Bachelor of Science (BE (Hons) BSc).
The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) provides you with a solid background in mathematics, natural sciences and computing to give you knowledge and skills in whichever specialisation you choose. You'll have the chance to apply yourself to engineering design and enquiry projects, professional engineering practice, and engineering and technical management, as well as conduct research towards your thesis project.
The Bachelor of Science degree allows you to study a wide range of science subjects. You are encouraged to choose a variety of courses in your first year, and later to choose from a broad selection of major options. This gives you time to become more familiar with the different areas of science and to explore possible majors.
Major: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
Biochemistry is the study of molecules and chemical reactions that take place in all living organisms. Many of the recent advances in the life sciences have resulted from an amalgamation of biochemistry with molecular and genetic approaches. For example, biochemistry looks at reactions that turn food into energy, how DNA works to make us look the way we do, and how plants trap and use the energy of sunlight.
One of the most exciting areas of modern biochemistry is often referred to as "Molecular Biology". This area of biochemistry has contributed much to our understanding of how genes function by using the techniques of genetic engineering and DNA technology. Molecular Biology has made extensive contributions to the fields of medical DNA analysis, immunology, tissue transplantation, environmental monitoring and many other diverse areas affecting the daily life and health of all of us. It is a fundamental part of medical science and plays an increasingly important role in modern medical practice.
