Aim
Biochemistry together with the rapidly developing science and technology is an area of science that exists in everyday life. According to today's understanding of science, healthy living, maintaining a good understanding of diseases and treatment requires knowledge of biochemistry and applications. Therefore, biochemistry provides knowledge not only for student in medicine but also to all fields dealing with biotechnology and health. The purpose of the Master's degree in Biochemistry is to train individuals that will support and contribute the progress in science, biotechnology and its applications.Qualification Awarded
