Objectives

The Department of Biochemistry is driven by a profound objective to decode the complicated molecular foundations of health and disease. Biochemistry is not merely a standalone subject; it seamlessly integrates principles from pharmacology, pathology, cell biology, and physiology to clarify both the foundations and potential therapeutic avenues for treating diseases. Our overarching goal is to comprehend the structure, behaviour, and molecular processes of biomolecules that drive health and pathology.

  • Enable students to comprehend the biochemical basis and rationale of clinical laboratory tests.
  • Foster the ability to interpret these tests within the clinical context.
  • Utilize integrated teaching to provide an innovative and comprehensive learning experience.

To fulfill the above objective a teaching programme has been tailored to suit the undergraduate student’s needs involving Integrated teaching that provides an innovative approach.
