该联合荣誉学位课程结合了生物化学和免疫学。生物化学是对细胞如何在分子水平上工作的研究。生物化学以及分子生物学的相关领域对于理解生命的分子基础及其在疾病过程中的作用非常重要。免疫学是人体如何防御疾病的研究。它可以帮助我们了解免疫系统是如何被诱骗攻击其自身组织的，从而导致类风湿关节炎，糖尿病或过敏等疾病。选择特定学位组合的机会将使您能够进入专门的生物医学科学领域，例如神经科学，心血管研究，免疫药理学，工业免疫学，药物研究，生物化学，微生物学和细菌学。<br> 4年制课程，全日制可选国外一年
Study with usDevelop an understanding of the molecular basis of life and how alteration of these molecular pathways leads to disease processesStudy how the body defends itself against disease including not only defence against bacteria, parasites or viruses but also the elimination of cancer and processes such as inflammation and wound healingStudy or take part in lab-based research abroadThis joint Honours degree course combines biochemistry and immunology and is accredited by the Royal Society of BiologyOur courses are underpinned by our strong research base, links with industry, the NHS and international partnersAssessmentKnowledge and understanding are assessed by written examinations, essays, presentations and computer-aided learning (CAL) exercises and quizzes, available on our virtual learning environment, Myplace.Competence is assessed through practical tests, practical write-ups, project reports and CAL exercises and quizzes.Communication skills are assessed through essays and oral presentations.Project work is assessed from project reports and oral presentations.There’s an individual research project in the final year of the course where you’ll demonstrate research skills, problem-solving and a research approach.Biochemistry is the study of how cells work at molecular level. Biochemistry, and the related field of molecular biology are important in understanding the molecular basis of life and its role in the disease process.Immunology is the study of how the body defends itself against disease. It helps us understand how the immune system is tricked into attacking its own tissue, leading to diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes or allergy.The opportunity to choose specific degree combinations will allow you to go into specialist biomedical science areas such as neuroscience, cardiovascular research, immunopharmacology, industrial immunology, drug research, biochemistry, microbiology and bacteriology.
