CAREER IN BIOCHEMISTRY The goal of life sciences is to understand the living world and to use this knowledge for the benefit of mankind. The enormous variety of living organisms and the complexity of what goes in them, has led to the development of many specialisms that focus on particular part of the whole area. Educational opportunities in life sciences are available at the Bachelors degree level, postgraduate degree level (both Masters degree and postgraduate diploma), doctoral and postdoctoral levels.
