Biochemistry, BSc (Hons), with study abroad

Biochemistry explores the molecular structure and function of living organisms, serving as a dynamic and essential discipline in biology and medicine. This four-year degree is designed for students seeking international experience, offering opportunities to study abroad in the third year, which enhances global perspectives, confidence, and employability in a competitive market.The program features core modules in biochemistry and chemistry, with pathways allowing specialization in biochemistry, genetics, or biomedicine. In the first year, students gain a broad foundation in biology and chemistry, supplemented by pathway-specific courses. The final year advances along the chosen pathway, including options like Innovation in the Biosciences or Neurobiology, and involves hands-on laboratory projects using state-of-the-art facilities at Lancaster University. While the university strives to arrange overseas placements, availability is not guaranteed, and students bear financial responsibility for such experiences.
