BSc Biochemistry

The BSc Biochemistry course at Kingston University London aims to give students the skills needed for a future career in biochemistry by focusing on understanding the chemical parts that make living things work and the tiny processes that control life. Students will get hands-on experience in modern laboratories throughout their studies.

The course begins with basic biology and chemistry in the first year, then, in the second year, it moves to more specific topics like how proteins work, body processes, how cells are organised, gene activity, tiny living things (microbiology), and lab methods used in the medicine industry. The final year involves practical lab work, clinical testing, and a main independent research project. Learning takes place through classes, smaller group discussions, practical lessons, and individual study, with help from personal tutors.
