Studies in biochemistry

Bachelor

Maximum allowed duration to obtain a BSc: 5 years • 60 ECTS credits by successful study year

Terms of success

1st year

  • scores ≥ 4 to exams in biochemistry weighted average score ≥ 4 to exams in off-chemistry areas maximum one score between 2 and 4, no score below 2
  • certificate of successful completion of practical work

In case of failure, the first year can be repeated only once. Scores ≥ 4 and practical work certificats remain acquired.

2nd and 3rd year

    maximum two scores between 3 and 4, no score below 3
  • certificate of successful completion of practical work
  • score ≥ 4 to 3rd year's bibliographical work

In case of failure of the second year, it is possible to take the examinations of the third year only when they do not require prerequisites of the second year. Unsuccessful exams may be repeated only once. Upon request, one exam per academic year may be repeated a second time.

An overall average score ≥ 5 in 2nd year lets ask to substitute the practical work of the 3rd year by a traineeship of the same length and nature.

Obtaining a BSc in biochemistry, corresponding to 180 credits, allows access to the MSc in biochemistry.
