Overview
We’ll also show you the various ways that biochemistry and genetics can be applied to major challenges affecting humanity today, from understanding and treating a range of diseases, feeding a global population sustainably and how new drugs are designed.
Key Features
- From your first year in the Biochemistry and Genetics programme offered by the University of Sheffield , you’ll study modules that span the molecular biosciences covering biochemistry, genetics, microbiology and molecular biology.
- Alongside these modules, you’ll have the freedom to explore complementary topics across the breadth of bioscience, such as biomedicine, plant science, evolution and conservation, so you’ll have the option to study biochemistry and genetics in greater depth, keep your interests broad or even switch to another degree programme within the biosciences.
