Plan Outline

This plan is for a Major in Genetics within Bachelor of Science programs (excluding Advanced Science). It offers a general introduction to the discipline during the first years of study and then allows students to diversify into the more specialised areas of genetics, including molecular genetics, human genetics, plant and microbial molecular biology, conservation biology, etc

Plan Structure

For a Major in Genetics, students must successfully complete the following:

Stage 1

BABS1201 Molecues, Cells and Genes (6 UOC)
BIOS1101 Evolutionary & Functional Bio (6 UOC)
CHEM1011 Fundamentals of Chem 1A (6 UOC)
CHEM1021 Fundamentals of Chem 1B (6 UOC)
MATH1031 Mathematics for Life Sciences (6 UOC)
MATH1041 Stats for Life & Soc Sciences (6 UOC)

Note: CHEM1031 and CHEM1041 may be substituted for CHEM1011 and CHEM1021 respectively.

Stage 2
