Every living being possesses a genome that holds the genetic blueprint guiding its growth and development. Genomics explores these genomes, covering areas such as DNA architecture and roles, advanced sequencing technologies, and computer-based comparisons between species' genetic codes. This rapidly expanding discipline finds uses in cancer research, farming, oceanography, and beyond. Graduates with genomics qualifications are equipped for advanced studies or careers in university labs, corporate research facilities, government laboratories, or biotech firms.
UNH's genomics program offers instruction in genome interpretation, evolutionary genetics, bioinformatics programming, and modern genetic analysis approaches for both bacterial and complex organisms. Through the Hubbard Center for Genome Studies and Research Computing Center, students access cutting-edge tools to master genomic and bioinformatic methods. Numerous participants obtain practical skills by contributing to research initiatives in professors' laboratories.
Each student must have their official high school diploma or general equivalency diploma.
