The BSc Genetics program allows you to explore a foundational scientific field that intersects with all areas of contemporary biology, spanning from evolutionary studies to medical applications, while also encompassing practical domains like biotech and farming. You'll uncover the fundamentals of inheritance and biological change, master gene mapping techniques, and gain insight into genetic functionality. The curriculum examines how complex organisms develop from single cells through controlled gene activation processes, including the precise mechanisms governing genetic regulation. You'll also discover why research organisms like fruit flies and mice hold critical value for human health studies and how individual genetic profiles influence disease susceptibility. Your introductory year features mandatory coursework in biochemistry and cellular biology, establishing essential knowledge for advanced specialization in subsequent years.
