vision
- The discipline of biochemistry is a keystone for life Sciences.
- Biochemistry will have a significant role in the improvement of quality of life.
- The progress in biochemistry will lead to the growth of advanced technologies that are vital in the diagnosis as well as in the cure of metabolic and other cellular dysfunctions and in the management of infectious diseases.
- Biochemistry is the study of the molecules that make up all living things. It is important to understand how biological organism functions at the chemical level.
- It is inherently interdisciplinary in nature and fundamental to every other branch of the life and biomedical sciences. To educate students in fundamental knowledge of biochemistry, to create a positive impact on society and industry.
