Biological Sciences BSc
University of Northampton Campus, United Kingdom
At Level 4 of our biochemistry uni course, you explore a variety of biochemical aspects, such as, bond formation and dissociation, energy storage and transfer, and the structure and function of micro- and macro- molecules. You also develop your practical skills as a biochemist engaging in laboratory-based learning and work with qualitative and quantitative biochemical data.
Year 2
At level 5, our processes of life module provides a conceptual approach to biochemistry while the applied chemistry module offers a more mathematical understanding, allowing multiple perspectives of biochemistry. You undertake the bioinformatics module before you then begin to develop your research proposals for your final year dissertation project along with optional modules in genetics and microbiology.
Year 3
In the final year of this BSc biochemistry course, you will do an independent dissertation project supervised by an academic tutor. In addition, you can explore contemporary issues in biochemistry and how diagnostic tests are applied in clinical contexts. If you are particularly interested in genetics, you might follow a bespoke pathway. That could start with ‘genetics and molecular biology’ in the first year before advancing to ‘genes and genomics’ in the second year and then completing your final year with medical genetics. Our Microbiology theme includes ‘Introduction to microbiology’ in your first year, Techniques in molecular biology in your second year and then pathogen biology in your final year.
