BIOCHEMISTRY B.Sc (Hons)

Whether you choose to study as combined honours or single honours, you’ll be studying life at the molecular level, investigating the most exciting areas of contemporary life science and medical research.

You might explore the secrets of the human genome, or the individually tailored molecular therapies of the future.

Particular emphasis is placed on human and mammalian biochemistry, especially relating to health and disease. Single honours includes more biochemistry modules* and also includes choices from a pool of elective modules (either directly related or free choice). You can create a four year degree by doing a work and industrial placement between the second and third year.

Job Opportunity Potential

96% of Keele graduates were in a job or further study within six months of graduating (DLHE, 2017)

When you graduate, the broad and detailed understanding of biochemistry you’ll have developed at Keele will open up a world of appealing career options. You could choose to work in a directly related field, perhaps as a clinical biochemist, medical bioscientist, forensic scientist, research scientist, toxicologist or science teacher. Or you might branch out a little further, and become a health and safety inspector, training standards officer, science writer or technical author.

The applied nature of the program will equip you with a range of transferable employability skills for careers in the biosciences as well as in other graduate careers where numeracy and an objective scientific approach to problem solving are valued.
