Programme Overview

A Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Chemistry and Biochemistry typically combines the study of chemistry with biological sciences, focusing on the chemical processes within and related to living organisms. Here’s a brief overview of the program:Core Subjects:
1. General Chemistry: Introduction to the principles of chemistry, including atomic structure, chemical bonding, and reactions.
2. Organic Chemistry: Study of the structure, properties, and reactions of organic compounds and materials.
3. Inorganic Chemistry: Focuses on inorganic compounds, their properties, and reactions.
4. Physical Chemistry: Combines principles of physics and chemistry to study the physical properties of molecules.
5. Biochemistry: Examines the chemical processes within and related to living organisms, including metabolism and enzyme function.
6. Analytical Chemistry: Techniques and methods for analyzing substances to determine their composition and concentration.
Practical Experience:
- Laboratory Work: Hands-on experience in conducting experiments, using laboratory equipment, and applying safety protocols.
- Research Projects: Opportunities to engage in research, often culminating in a thesis or capstone project.
