Biochemistry is about understanding life on its smallest scale – the molecules and cells that make up organisms - and is one of four degree courses taught by the School of Life Sciences. This course will appeal to those who enjoy both biology and chemistry. You will study the structure and function of proteins and nucleic acids, how gene expression is controlled, how membranes, antibodies and hormones work, and how cells function within multicellular organisms.Course overviewFollowing an in-depth foundation in biochemistry, this course broadens out to allow a focus on more specialist fields. These include biophysical chemistry, which covers biological macromolecules at the atomic level, and understanding the genome and gene regulation.Our exceptionally wide range of options allows you to pursue areas that interest you. You will graduate with a sound understanding of the biochemical and structural basis of molecular, cellular and development processes in a variety of organisms.You will benefit from our tutorial system for academic and pastoral support, alongside high-quality laboratory time.Placements and work experienceYou can take a year in industry after your second year to gain industrial experience.Work placements cover a wide range of work experience types and destinations, both laboratory and non-laboratory. You will have both an academic and placement site supervisor. Your placement will allow you to improve personal and transferable skills, make new contacts and will enhance your employability.Whilst we do not guarantee you a placement, you will be given extensive support to secure one. Recent placements have included:GSKThe Binding SiteThe Body Shop.Many of our BSc students also choose to undertake work placements during vacations. We actively promote these placements and will support you with applications and interview skills.Your careerGraduates on our courses have gone on to work for employers including:AstraZenecaNHSCivil ServiceKPMGJohnson and JohnsonTeslaALS: Sarstedt LtdNovartisUniversities and SchoolsThey have pursued roles such as:Graduate-entry medicine studentsNHS scientistsBiomedical research and development scientistsScientific publishing professionalsLaboratory techniciansTeachersBusiness, marketing and accountancy professionalsPostgraduate student or researcher.
