B.Sc. (Hons./by Research) Biochemistry

B.Sc. (Research) in Biochemistry is an undergraduate degree programme according to NEP 2020 that focuses on the study of chemical processes within living organisms. The programme combines concepts from biology, chemistry and physics to understand the structure and function of biological molecules such as proteins, nucleic acids and carbohydrates. The B.Sc. (Research) in Biochemistry programme typically spans over 4 years and is divided into eight semesters. The curriculum of the programme includes both theoretical and practical components, with laboratory work being an important aspect of the course. In addition to the above courses, students also need to complete a research based project. This provides them an opportunity to apply the concepts they have learned in a real-life-setting and gain hands-on-experience.

The programme is designed to provide students with a strong foundation in biochemistry, which can be further developed through graduate-level studies or by pursuing a career in the fields such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical research or academia.
