理学学士荣誉遗传学专业

遗传学是对性状遗传的过程和意义的研究，它与基因和分子DNA的概念明确相关。该系根据其研究和教学优势，在生物学的这一基础领域提供了四个模块。在分子遗传学领域，学生将能够学习一系列针对基因结构的课程
The most important alphabet on Earth is its smallest — the four letter code of DNA. How hereditary information is conveyed using such a small code began to be understood by studying organisms in which something was wrong (mutants). Today this traditional approach is complemented by molecular genetics, which takes advantage of a wealth of DNA sequence information as well as technologies that allows one to easily disrupt and replace specific genes. As a student, you can take a range of courses focused on gene structure, function and regulation that are taught using a range of animal, plant and microbial systems. Courses in genetic engineering, developmental genetics, behavioural genetics, and evolutionary genetics convey the importance of the smallest alphabet has an all aspects of life.<br><br>Honors Specialization in Genetics – This module reflects one of the core research strengths of the Department. Students take a range of courses focused on gene structure, function and regulation that introduce modern ‘omic’ approaches (e.g., genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics) that are taught using a range of animal, plant and microbial systems. Related topics such as genetic engineering and developmental genetics form the basis of additional courses.
