Biochemistry is an area of knowledge and study about biomolecules, reactions and interactions that are involved in biological processes in cells and organisms. Since biochemistry seeks to unravel the complex chemical reactions that occur in a wide variety of life forms, it provides the basis for practical advances in medicine, veterinary medicine, agriculture and biotechnology. This programme emphasises on understanding all these biological processes via molecular approach. The programme is designed in such a way that the students will be able to appreciate the complexity of life at the molecular level.
