Study Level

Undergraduate

The BSc Genetics course will enable students to study a discipline of fundamental importance to all branches of modern biology, from evolutionary biology to medicine, extending into practical areas such as biotechnology and agriculture. On this course, students will discover the principles of heredity and evolution and learn how we can map genes, and understand their function. Students will also consider how the development of multi-cellular organisms can progress from a single cell through regulated courses of gene expression, and learn the detailed mechanisms by which genes can be switched on and off. The first year consists of compulsory units including biochemistry and cell biology, providing a basis for specialisation in their second and third years.
