BSc (Hons) Biochemistry
Course Details
The progression of modern science reveals another world much smaller than the human eye can see, the microscopic world of biology. However, these tiny processes actually serve as the driving force for all living systems.
A Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry studies the chemical processes and molecules that make up the world as we know it. This interdisciplinary program combines biology and chemistry to study how cells function at the molecular level.
In this course, you'll learn the chemical and biological techniques for disciplines like enzyme kinetics, metabolism, molecular biology, and protein structure while developing necessary laboratory skills for...
