Genetics

The Genetics course is designed to help students learn to integrate the most important concepts in classical and molecular genetics into an overall picture of what a gene is, how it functions, how it may be altered and how it is inherited. This lecture, laboratory oriented course will emphasize higher order thinking skills using online activities, laboratory investigations, and problem solving activities. Students will learn about recent advances in biotechnology and discuss the biblical and genetic implications these advances may have.
