Biochemical Engineering from Biochemistry Degree

I'm about to enter my final year of a BSc Biochemistry degree in the UK. I would really like to go on to become a biochemical engineer but i'm not sure exactly what further study (if any) or graduate program that I would need to complete in order to do so. I would also be more than happy to go abroad (Iv been learning Japanese for about a year and know my way around Tokyo). #graduate #biochemistry #bioengineering #graduate-recruitment #working-abroad

If I decide to go into a biology major or other related fields (i.e. biochemistry, microbiology) is it relatively easy to find jobs or should I look into going to grad school soon after I graduate from college? What kinds of jobs would be available to me?

I'm a rising sophomore in college who is interested in paring her environmental science minor with a biology major or a major from a related field. Before I declare my major I'm curious about the availability and type of jobs that I can consider after I graduate from college. #biochemistry #environmental #microbiology

Are there webistes out there that can help me when I'm taking my chemistry courses?

I was just curious about if there are different websites that can help me when I'm taking my chemistry courses throughout college. I know that college courses offer students office hours and review sessions so I was just wondering if there was certain sites for individual study. #college #science #chemistry #biochemistry #tutoring

How likely am I to travel abroad if I do undergraduate research?

I have always wanted to study abroad, but I'm worried that if I do undergraduate research, I won't be able to go because my project will keep me on campus. Is it likely I'll be able to go abroad and do research? I want to make the most out of my college experience. #research #study-abroad #biochemistry

How often will I find myself stuck without anything to do if I want to be a research biochemist?

I want to be a researcher after I graduate college. However, I want to know how often I will be stuck in the lab without any instruction and no work to do. I wish to be as productive as possible, so I'd like to know if I'll always be busy or not. #biology #graduate #chemistry #undergraduate #biochemistry

Are the prospects for chemistry truly as bad as people make them out to be?

Initially, I was really interested in majoring in chemistry/biochemistry (I realize the two are very different, but was leaning towards chemistry) this coming fall, but from what I've read online, chemists don't seem to have great job prospects. I've read of PhD students struggling to make over $50k a year, as well as the overall shortage of long-lasting (see: not temp) jobs in the field. Though chemistry interests me, I honestly don't want to find myself at a dead end with tons of student debt and no way to pay it off. Thanks :) #science #chemistry #biochemistry #job-market #organic-chemistry

If I had a B.Pharm degree, what would I do next if I wanted to do biochemical engineering/chemical engineering?

Okay, so basically I'm in my second year of the B.Pharm degree. I want to finish the degree. What would be my next step? In the end I want to do research in a direction that would incorporate biochemical engineering into my knowledge of medicines. To put it into perspective; I wouldn't mind studying another four to six years after having done the B.Pharm degree if I could then have a career as a research scientist in drug design, or something along those lines. #chemical-engineering #biochemistry #bioengineering #organic-chemistry #drug-development #drug-discovery

How far can I expect to get in the biochemistry field with a bachelor's degree?

I'm a high school senior and will be entering my freshman year of college in the fall. While I haven't made any final decision as to what I will be majoring in (and I know my interests may shift within the next few years - I'm looking at biochemistry and chemical/biochemical engineering at the moment). I'm curious as to what I can expect within the biochemistry field directly out of college. What are the job prospects, and what will the pay typically be? Would it be more beneficial to pursue a master's degree directly after earning a bachelor's? #biochemistry #biochemist

What's the difference between an immunologist and a pathologist, and what courses/degrees would one have to take to become either of these?

I would like to become a scientist who develops cures/methods for diseases. I'm not yet sure if these would be viruses, autoimmune diseases, bacterial, and so forth. I would preferably be working in a lab, but not be a practicing doctor. I'm confused on the name(s) of these fields and what path I would have to take to do this. Would I have to become a practicing doctor first, then specialize? When I apply to college should I apply to the Medicine department or somewhere else? #medicine #biochemistry #pathology #immunology
