Students will study classical and molecular genetics that emphasizes the nature of hereditary material, gene transmission and expression, linkage and recombination, and gene action and regulation. Lectures will cover a broad range of topics addressing both prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems. Issues and ethics concerning the human condition will be addressed. Laboratory activities will target the application of a variety of practical, critical thinking, and technical skills.

I enjoyed this class because I find genetics very interesting and my professor explained it in a way that I could understand. Attached is a group lab report about our semester long experiment.
