理学学士（荣誉）遗传学

了解遗传学和分子遗传学是生物学，现代医学和生物技术各个方面的基础。遗传学影响生活的各个方面。遗传学学位为科学，工业，医疗保健，法医以及其他领域的工作机会打开了广阔的世界。格拉斯哥的遗传学在学习机会和学生语音满意度方面均在罗素集团中名列前茅（NSS 2017）。您将接受广泛的实验室培训，并获得重要的可转移技能，包括解决问题，编写和提交报告以及对书面报告和数据进行批判性分析。您将获得有关现代生物学各个方面的一般介绍，并鼓励您掌握一般科学技能。在第一学期，您将学习生物学的基本知识。在第二学期，您将根据自己的兴趣
Genetics affects all aspects of life and health. Understanding genetics and molecular genetics is fundamental to biology, biotechnology, medicine, and health care. This is illustrated by the daily stories of genetics and genetic research in the press. The education and training you will receive as part of your Genetics degree will open a whole world of job opportunities in science, industry, healthcare, forensics and beyond.<br>You will undertake laboratory training and acquire important transferable skills including problem solving, writing, and presenting of reports, and critical analysis of data and written reports. These are key skills for any job in the modern world. You will also have the chance to spend one year working in a research laboratory in academia or in industry as part of our MSci programme. This will take place between years 3 and 4 of the Honours Degree. Advances in genetics have led to the completion of many genome projects and are directly responsible for the revolution that continues to take place in biological and medical science, healthcare, agriculture, and industry. For example, understanding the molecular basis of genetic and common diseases such as cancer, heart disease and dementia, to help develop new more effective treatments and medications. In addition, genetics is critically important for plant biotechnology and the use of genetic engineering, including for example the development of vaccines, and drought resistant crops.<br>Recent graduates have taken research, support or leadership roles in academia, industry and public services. Many graduates have entered teaching, medicine, management and journalism but these are only a few examples. The skills you will gain will help you in any future position.
