Biochemistry is the study of how cells work at molecular level. Biochemistry, and the related field of molecular biology are important in understanding the molecular basis of life and its role in the disease process.

Immunology is the study of how the body defends itself against disease. It helps us understand how the immune system is tricked into attacking its own tissue, leading to diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes or allergy.

The opportunity to choose specific degree combinations will allow you to go into specialist biomedical science areas such as neuroscience, cardiovascular research, immunopharmacology, industrial immunology, drug research, biochemistry, microbiology and bacteriology.

Study with us

• Develop an understanding of the molecular basis of life and how alteration of these molecular pathways leads to disease processes
• Study how the body defends itself against disease including not only defence against bacteria, parasites or viruses but also the elimination of cancer and processes such as inflammation and wound healing
• Study or take part in lab-based research abroad
• This joint Honours degree course combines biochemistry and immunology and is accredited by the Royal Society of Biology
• Our courses are underpinned by our strong research base, links with industry, the NHS and international partners
