Overview
Biochemistry is the study of life at the molecular level. You will explore the way that molecules are synthesised, regulated and interact to give rise to highly complex organisms. Biochemistry lies at the interface of the life and physical sciences and is therefore applicable to a wide range of fields such as medicine, pharmaceutics and biotechnology.
This Biochemistry (Hons) course offered at the Aston University has been designed to meet the rising demand for qualified biochemists within the UK and across the world.
Your future career prospects
Biochemistry graduates are equipped for a wide range of professional careers in both the public and private sectors including research and development, scientific communication, patent law, sales and management. Many graduates will undertake further postgraduate study.
