Course summary


Overview

Immerse yourself in the wonder of biological organisms and processes at the molecular level. Explore aspects of life from molecules to cells, from tissues to organisms. Learn from leading research scientists who are specialists in their fields of study. Our Biochemistry degrees at UEA are taught jointly by the Schools of Biological Sciences and Chemistry, Pharmacy and Pharmacology with invaluable contributions from scientists from other research institutions located nearby in the Norwich Research Park. This dual approach means that in all elements of the course, you’ll benefit from subject-specific experts. During your time at UEA, you’ll have the chance to study a range of fascinating subjects, progressing from the basics of biochemistry to higher-level research areas such as protein engineering and cancer biology. You’ll not only learn how to perform ground-breaking and highly specialised research, but also how to interpret and communicate these findings to the wider scientific community. You’ll benefit from our enviable position as an integral partner of the Norwich Research Park (NRP), which houses the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital as well as leading research institutes such as the John Innes Centre, an international centre of excellence in plant science, genetics, and microbiology, the Sainsbury Laboratory for research into plant disease resistance, the Earlham Institute for genomics, bioinformatics and molecular biology research, and the Quadram Institute, where research focuses on human health, food and disease. The Norwich Research Park is one of the largest single-site concentrations of food, genomics and health scientists in Europe. This course will prepare you to work in industry, or progress to a postgraduate degree and a career in research. Upon graduation, having studied cutting edge methods in synthetic, chemical and structural biology, you’ll have the potential to make an impact on many areas of contemporary science, including health, nutrition, clean energy, and tackling pollution. Biochemists are frequent winners of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry and Michael Houghton, an alumnus of the UEA School of Biological Sciences and Biochemistry PhD, won the Nobel prize for Physiology or Medicine in 2020.
