BSc (Hons) Genetics
Genetics – the study of genes and inheritance – is a fast-paced and exciting field underpinning all modern biology. On your course, you’ll cover a broad range of topics including the use of modern genetic methods to track down disease genes.
Our friendly staff have close links with organisations including Cancer Research UK and the Wellcome Trust. You’ll learn from experts across the spectrum of genetics, including academics from:
- Genome Damage and Stability Centre
- Sussex Neuroscience
- Evolution, Behaviour and Environment
- Biochemistry.
This means you’ll study subjects based on the latest research, from biodiversity to cancer.
Recent advances are revolutionising the ways genes and entire genomes are not only studied but also edited and modified. These developments are at the foundation of:
- the health sciences
- biotechnology
- biodiversity conservation.
