MBiolSci Medical Biosciences (Biochemistry)
Course Overview
This four-year MBiolSci in Medical Biochemistry provides a comprehensive foundation in the molecular processes of life and their critical relationship to medicine and human health. You will learn to analyze the biochemical basis of disease and explore how this knowledge drives the development of targeted therapies and emerging technologies like gene editing. The final year is dedicated to an advanced research project, honing your practical and analytical skills to prepare you for a high-level career in science or further study.
Key Program Highlights
- Focus on the molecular mechanisms of disease and the design of targeted drug therapies
- Develop advanced research skills through a dedicated fourth-year project in a specialist area
- Gain hands-on experience with emerging biotechnologies, including gene editing
- Option to spend a year in industry or study abroad between your second and third year
- Acquire highly valued transferable skills in complex problem-solving, data analysis, and scientific communication
