Bachelor of Science in Genetics

Program Overview

In the past two decades, genetics has undergone a revolution – transformed by groundbreaking advances in technology and research. Today, genetics is at the cutting edge of scientific discovery driving many of the major breakthroughs that are shaping our world. It is an incredibly exciting time to immerse yourself in this dynamic and rapidly evolving field.

On this course you will gain cutting-edge knowledge of the basic blueprint of life – learning how traits are inherited, expressed, and modified. You’ll explore how genetic research and genetic technologies, such as genome engineering, are being used to address some of the most complex scientific questions and tackle the world’s biggest challenges. You will gain hands-on experience in fundamental and advanced genetic techniques and can personalise your degree through a range of optional modules including human genetic disorders and cancer genetics.

Genetics is transforming our understanding of medicine, agriculture, biodiversity and conservation, and biotechnology. From unlocking the mechanisms of disease inheritance and prognosis, to revolutionising crop improvement and developing of new technologies, genetics is at the heart of addressing the global challenges of our generation and future generations - health crises, food security and environmental sustainability.

This 3-year BSc can also be converted into an integrated Masters (MBiol) with an optional additional year of specialist training, to study advanced research topics and undertake your own extended research project.
