Biochemistry, the study of biological phenomena at the cellular and molecular level, is studied to learn about the principles governing complex biological systems. The primary objective of this course is to give students a solid foundation in biochemical processes, to develop analytical, technical and critical thinking skills and to make them scientifically literate to contribute to the discipline after graduation. Biochemistry focuses on understanding the chemical basis, which allows biological molecules to give rise to the processes that occur within living cells and between cells, relating greatly to understanding tissues and organs as well as organism structure and function.
