Department of Biochemistry celebrates student excellence
The department congratulates the outstanding progress of students across all cohorts of the Undergraduate Biochemistry degree
This is the time of year when Biochemistry celebrates the outstanding progress of students across all cohorts of the Undergraduate Biochemistry degree here at Oxford. With prizes to honour achievements from finishing top in specific exams and getting top marks for project work to being recognised for high quality practicals and data handling, this is an opportunity for staff to single out some truly exceptional performances.
Mark Roberts, Associate Professor of Biochemical Education and Associate Director of Teaching and Learning at the Department of Biochemistry at Oxford, says: ‘I love this time of year when the students are able to celebrate how far they have come and reflect on the exciting science that they have encountered over their time here. It’s great to celebrate individual successes and to share.’
