我们的BSc遗传学课程将使您学习对现代生物学所有分支（从进化生物学到医学）的基本重要性的学科，并延伸到生物技术和农业等实际领域。您将发现遗传和进化的原理，并学习如何绘制基因并了解其功能。您还将考虑如何通过调控的基因表达过程，从单个细胞发展多细胞生物的发展，并学习可以打开和关闭基因的详细机制。此外，您还将了解诸如果蝇和老鼠等模型生物如何具有巨大的生物医学重要性，并了解我们的基因组成如何使我们易患各种疾病。您的第一年包括生物化学和细胞生物学在内的必修课，为第二和第三年的专业化奠定了基础。您可以将学位延长一年，
Our BSc Genetics course will enable you 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. You will discover the principles of heredity and evolution and learn how we can map genes, and understand their function. You 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. In addition, you will understand how model organisms, such as the fruit fly and the mouse, are of enormous biomedical importance, and learn how our genetic make-up can predispose us to different diseases. Your first year consists of compulsory units including biochemistry and cell biology, providing a basis for specialisation in your second and third years You can extend your degree by a year to undertake an integrated master's , gain industrial/professional experience or learn a modern language .<br>3-year course, Full time (Optional foundation year)
