Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Biochemistry

Encompassing the study of the molecular, cellular and physiological bases of life, biochemistry provides insights into many of the problems that have fascinated and perplexed biologists for generations. This degree course has been designed to meet the growing need for qualified biochemists. London Metropolitan University will give students the practical skills they need to pursue a career in the field, including laboratory, research and analysis skills. Students will also develop a solid understanding of applied biology and medicinal chemistry, and have the chance to put this knowledge to the test. Teaching will take place in the state-of-the-art Science Centre, which is equipped with 280 workstations and a number of specialised laboratories, such as tissue culture research and microbiology. Students will get the chance to gain hands-on experience in a lab setting under the guidance of expert researchers and academics.
