A Ph.D. in Medical Biochemistry explores the chemical processes that take place in the human body and is an advanced research degree that lasts 4-5 years. In-depth courses in physiology, molecular biology, and biochemistry are combined with a rigorous research project in this program. Students become proficient in methods such as chromatography, bioinformatics, and spectroscopy to explore the biochemical processes that underlie both health and illness. Graduates are equipped for jobs in government organizations, biotechnology, pharmaceutical research, or academia where they can help create novel medical treatments, diagnostics, and therapies. Students gain critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication abilities that are highly regarded in the medical sciences thanks to the demanding curriculum and individual research project.
