Qualifications for Biochemistry jobs
A degree is essential for the majority of Biochemistry jobs. Entry to Biochemistry degree courses usually requires at least two A levels, including Chemistry and Biology.

In the NHS, graduates with a first degree in Biochemistry can enter into Trainee Clinical Biochemist Positions and study for a Master's degree on-the-job. In order to enter into direct employment as a registered Clinical Biochemist in the NHS, an approved postgraduate qualification in Biochemistry is required. Once in employment, all Biochemists are provided with regular on-the-job training covering new experimental techniques and health and safety regulations.
