Master of Biochemistry (Hons) (Plus Optional Placement Year)

Program Overview

Biochemistry sits at the boundary between the physical and life sciences. It concerns the molecular basis of health and disease, contributing to the discovery of new medicines, the growth of biotechnology, and the feeding of a growing population.

You'll learn how knowledge of DNA sequences and appreciation of the structure and function of proteins are enabling us to better understand how living systems work, guiding the design of drugs to combat disease, and the engineering of biomolecules to enhance industrial processes.

This integrated Masters course specifically focuses on the skills needed for a career as a research scientist. You'll work with researchers in one of the UK’s top bioscience departments to learn specialised techniques. You'll gain experience in a research lab doing pioneering work, undertake specialist research training and take Masters-level modules.

Adding a year in industry or a year abroad are options with this course, so you can benefit from the advantages that a year away can bring. There are also opportunities for paid summer research internships.
