Welcome to the PhD. Biochemistry

The PhD degree in Biochemistry is designed to train students to be effective research scientists.  In addition to developing deep knowledge of a subject area and broader knowledge of the relevant field, students will develop skills in:

  • identifying experimentally answerable scientific questions and assessing the value of these questions to both science and society
  • designing and executing experiments that test these scientific questions
  • analysing and interpreting experimental data
  • presenting the aims and outcomes of scientific research in both written and oral form
  • sourcing, assessing and critically evaluating scientific literature
  • time, data and resource management
  • collaborative and interpersonal professional behaviour
With a PhD in Biochemistry, students will develop the skills necessary to become competent researchers with the ability to conduct their own independent research. They will take courses in experimental design and measurement, biomedical product development, and applied statistics in biomedical sciences, making them prime candidates for jobs within the medical field. We'll look at five jobs with strong job growth and salary potential that graduates of doctoral biochemistry programs can pursue.
