ماذا سوف أتعلم؟
**Explore the basis of life at the molecular level, from cells, proteins and DNA, to how these molecules interact to sustain life, before putting your knowledge and skills into practice in the lab.**On our three-year BSc Biochemistry course, you’ll investigate the structure and function of biological systems at a molecular level.Bringing together biology and chemistry, you’ll study the science that’s behind many medical discoveries. You'll learn about proteins, enzymes, hormones, and receptors, and explore the various ways that biochemistry can be applied to major challenges affecting humanity today, from how we sustainably feed a global population, to healthy ageing and how new drugs are designed.At Sheffield, you’ll be encouraged to be creative, think independently, and express your ideas. In the lab you’ll be studying the basis of life right down to the atomic level, completing practicals across molecular genetics, DNA manipulation, and protein structure analysis.Outside of the lab, you'll get the chance to develop IT solutions to global challenges that could range from how we deliver a sustainable food supply, to how we detect and treat heritable disease.As you progress through your degree, you'll have the option to specialise in the area of molecular bioscience that interests you across biochemistry, genetics, microbiology, or even biotechnology. No matter what areas of biochemistry you choose to study at Sheffield, you'll develop practical laboratory and transferable skills that make our graduates attractive to employers including project management, problem-solving, communication skills, and data analysis.All this experience will prepare you for your third-year research project where you could be laboratory based, focus on computer modelling, science education, or even science communication.**Gain extra experience as part of your degree**You can add an extra year of research experience with an integrated masters (MBiolSci), or spend a year on a work placement and gain transferable skills working with a top employer.**Why study this course?**- Accredited by the Royal Society of Biology: Shows employers that you've developed the practical skills and scientific knowledge that they're looking for.- Make the course your own: Study the full range of biochemistry or specialise in areas such as biotechnology, molecular genetics, antibiotic resistance or sustainability.- Real lab experience: Bring all your knowledge and skills together with your third-year research project.
