Integrated Masters - Master of Science (Honours) - Biochemistry

Biochemistry is crucial to the study and treatment of diseases, the development of pharmaceuticals, and the complex relationships with the environment.

The 4 year MSci is an advanced undergraduate degree, adding a further research-focused year to a 3 year BSc. This will give students an in-depth knowledge of the fundamental building blocks of all life on earth. The MSci programme follows the BSc in Biochemistry course, but offers specialist training in a broad range of laboratory techniques. In the additional year, students will develop an extended, research project.

Students will benefit from access to the state-of-the-art research facilities at the Medical School, including bioanalytical equipment such as high performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, mass spectrometry, DNA and protein analytical equipment, computer-based image analyzers for molecular or cellular studies.
