Overview

Biochemistry is the study of the chemical processes within and related to living organisms. This discipline is fundamental to understanding various biological processes at the molecular level and how they contribute to life itself. The Biochemistry Level 4 course is designed to provide students with in-depth knowledge of the structure and function of biomolecules, such as proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates.

By learning how these molecules interact within the body, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of life processes, ranging from the cellular level to overall organism functionality.

As a multidisciplinary field that bridges biology and chemistry, biochemistry opens doors to understanding complex biochemical reactions, metabolism, genetics, and cell biology. The course starts by introducing basic concepts of biochemistry and organic chemistry before moving on to more advanced topics, such as the role of proteins and nucleic acids in genetics and metabolism.

This foundation is essential for students looking to pursue careers in biochemistry, molecular biology, or related fields, as it fosters critical thinking skills and the ability to analyse biological systems from a molecular perspective.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
