理学士（荣誉）生物化学

生物化学是现代生物科学的核心，并深刻影响了包括医学领域在内的许多社会问题。从了解疾病的分子机制和衰老，揭示大分子结构的复杂性到彻底革新法医学，生物燃料和生物制药生物化学的发展已产生了真正的影响。生物化学是一门实验性的，基于实验室的主题，将化学的分子方法应用于构成地球生命的各种生物系统中，从而使人们能够了解分子水平上的生命的结构，功能和过程。您将向其领域最前沿的生物化学专家学习，并发展对您作为科学家的发展至关重要的理论知识，实践，基于问题和分析能力，所有这些都受到雇主的高度尊重和重视。可选的三明治年份，可选
Many devastating diseases, such as cancer, are caused by just a few atoms being out of place inside your cells. Biochemistry aims to understand how living things work at the atomic level. This knowledge drives the most exciting developments in biomedical research, from the development of new drugs to treat neurodegenerative disorders to cancer therapies and coronavirus vaccines.How are genes encoded in DNA and how do cells use this information to produce proteins How do proteins fold into 3D structures How does protein misfolding cause devastating diseases like Alzheimer’s How do mutations cause inherited disorders and cancer How do viruses infect and replicate inside cells On this course, taught by leading research experts, you’ll explore these questions and many others. You’ll understand the molecular basis of health and disease and how biochemists lead the way in therapeutic development.Biochemistry is an interdisciplinary subject at the boundary between biology and the physical sciences. As such, you’ll gain a unique knowledge base and skill set from your degree. This will make you highly sought after by a wide range of top employers within the biologicalbiomedical research sector and beyond.This 3 year BSc can also be converted into an integrated Masters (MBiol) with an optional additional year of specialist training, subject to suitable academic performance and availability. You would study advanced research topics and undertake your own extended research project.Course highlightsExperience the cutting edge in a research-active environment with world-class facilities.Perform a final-year project at the frontier of modern research.Weekly practical classes in the first two years of your degree, with the option to experience working in a research lab in your final year.Build transferable skills and employability with our skills-based teaching.Extensive wellbeing and employability support from dedicated faculty teams.Our year in industry programme allows you to gain experience working with organisations, developing new skills for your CV.Experience life and learning in a different country through our study abroad programme, where you'll gain fresh perspectives and develop skills valued by employers.The ongoing expansion of biosciences creates varied employment prospects and career opportunities.
