Key Information
Learning Outcomes 1. Identify the principles of chemical interactions and acid base balance.
2. Describe the structure and function of biomolecules.
3. Recognise the relationship between protein structure and function.
4. Demonstrate understanding of the biochemistry of metabolism.

Conditions of Progression An average mark of 40% is required to progress. For example 50% in
exam 1 and 30% in exam 2 gives a mean of 40%. Therefore despite
not passing exam 2, the average is 40%, meaning the module has been
passed and no need to resit.
In the event of failure at 1 st attempt, a resit of the failed exam(s) is
provided in the resit assessment period in the Summer
Late or Non-Submission/ For in-person assessments, you should arrive 15 minutes before your
Attendance allocated time slot. Failure to present at your allocated time, will result in
you being unable to sit the assessment and you will be recorded as a
non-submission, resulting in a grade of 0.

Academic Integrity Guidance Academic integrity is the attitude of approaching your academic work
honestly, by completing your own original work, attributing, and
acknowledging your sources when necessary. Understanding good
academic practice in written and oral work is a key element of academic
integrity. It is a positive aspect of joining an academic community,
showing familiarity with, and acknowledging sources of evidence. The
skills you require at higher education may differ from those learned
elsewhere such as school or college.

You will be required to follow specific academic conventions which


include acknowledging the work of others through appropriate
referencing and citation as explicitly as possible. If you include ideas or
quotations which have not been appropriately acknowledged, this may
be seen as plagiarism which is a form of academic misconduct. If you
require support around referencing, please contact the Faculty’s
Academic Development Department or the University wide Centre for
Academic Success.

It is important to recognise that seeking out learning around academic


integrity will help reduce the risk of misconduct in your work. Skills such
as paraphrasing, referencing and citation are integral to acting with
integrity and you can develop and advance these key academic skills
through the Faculty’s Academic Development Department.
Academic Misconduct Academic misconduct is conduct which has or may have the effect of
providing you with an unfair advantage by relying on dishonest means
to gain advantage and which therefore compromises your academic
integrity.

The procedure sets out the process we will follow, and the penalties we
may apply, in cases where we believe you may have compromised your
academic integrity by committing academic misconduct. The Academic
Misconduct Procedure and information about academic support is

Where to get help The University has a designated student support service known as the
Centre for Academic Success. Here you will find support for a range of
academic skills. Likewise, you can arrange a consultation with a
member of staff from the Academic Development Department based at
City South Campus. You also should also review the wide range of
support and help from the library.
Resit Period Our aim is for all students to pass the module at first attempt. However,
there are occasions where students fail a module are required to resit
their assessment. The formal resit week is Monday 28 July – Friday 08
August 2025. It is important that you are available during this time
period, should you be required to resit an assessment.
