Entry requirements
A level: AAA (Biology or Chemistry)
About this course
MBiochem in Biological Sciences, exploring the molecular basis of life across biochemical and biomolecular domains. Core topics include Research Methods. The programme spans four years, culminating in a supervised final-year research project at Level 7. Optional module selection in later years allows students to tailor their studies across areas such as synthetic biology, bioinformatics, and cancer biology.
