Universities Offering Biochemistry and Analytical Chemistry and Their Cluster Points

As outlined in the 2025/2026 Degree Programme Cut Offs document, the 2020 to 2024 cluster point trend for biochemistry and analytical chemistry (BSc degree program) degree programs by university indicates a trend of changing admission levels (cutoffs) at the public universities over these five years.

In the BSc degree program (Biochemistry), 15+ universities have offered admissions as part of this degree program.

The cluster points for these institutions ranged from significantly lower levels in 2020 to significantly higher levels in 2024.

The BSc program in (Analytical Chemistry), however, reflects different trends in that the cluster points at these universities ranged quite a bit; 2020 being a significant year with a general decrease, followed by the next two years (2021/2022) with a general decrease to a resurrection of sorts as indicated by an increase in certain universities from 2023 to 2024.
