Biochemistry
So many of society’s breakthroughs in medicine and genetics are owed to the study of biochemistry.
Explore the molecules of life like enzymes and proteins, and understand DNA and the role it plays in life with our biochemistry courses and degrees.
In a biochemistry course, you’ll study the nature of matter, looking at reactions and properties, organisms and complex molecules. Better yet, we’ll teach you how these concepts relate to real, practical applications in medical research.
If you’re interested in everything from food production to pharmaceuticals, biochemistry prepares you for what could be a truly world-changing career.
