Genetics explains the molecular and chromosomal basis of genetic expression, heredity and the role of genetic variation in evolution. And now, DNA technology and computing power is making genetics a rapidly growing area of biology.
On our BSc (Hons) Genetics course, you'll gain a solid understanding of the theory behind this discipline, including the technologies currently being developed. Our programme will give you hands-on experience of using the latest industry-standard technology and software.
You'll learn about molecular, cellular and population genetics, with a focus on their biotechnological elements. And you'll critically analyse the evolutionary outcomes and implications. Our degree provides you with many opportunities to complete practical fieldwork and independent laboratory research. All of this will boost your future job prospects.
