Prerequisite: "C" or better grade in BIOL 3300 . This course covers molecular genetics theory and practice, including gene structure and function, genetic engineering, and bioinformatics. Areas of emphasis will include DNA structure, replica-tion, and manipulation, and gene expression. Biotechnology laboratory exercises will include creating recombinant DNA, gene mapping, DNA sequencing, DNA sequence analysis, and poly-merase chain reaction applications.
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides students with a common course that deal with the key scientific, social, economic, commercial, and ethical issues that are associated with the development and growth of the biotechnology industry in the global market. This course reflects a traditional immersion experience in a host university along with extensive global travel and intercultural experiences to show, first hand, what is being studied in the classroom. More specifically students will relate the role of biotechnology and its application in industry in a global perspective. The travel component of this course is to enhance the academic and personal experience of the students along with traditional classroom work. In addition, this course will give students opportunity to learn about their chosen academic field or career choice from an international perspective, learn about communication and interactions skills with people from the host country, and establish successful relationships with others from around the world.

Prerequisite: "C" or better grade in BIOL 3300 and BIOL 3327 . An extensive preparatory course designed to give students hands-on experience with the methods used in the preparation of human chromosomes. Collection techniques, culture procedures, harvest-ing protocol and slide preparation will be followed by analysis and interpretation of karyotypes, both normal and abnormal. Clinical implications of abnormal karyotypes will also be included as will proper use of various types of microscopes and image capture and analysis by computer.
-
5.00 Credits
A supervised, credit-earning work experience of two academic semesters in a clinical cytogenetics laboratory affiliated with either a university hospital or a company. The extensive clinical laboratory training includes routine cytogenetic techniques such as G-banding, as well as advanced techniques such as fluoresencet in situ hybridization (FISH) and DNA chips. Upon the completion of the internship, the student is eligible to sit for the NCA certification exam.
-
3.00 Credits
A supervised, credit-earning work experience in the Pharmaceutical, Biotechnology or Biomedical Industry. Students will work in regulatory affairs and/or clinical trials, seeing how their previous course work is actually applied in these industries. This internship is limited to those completing the Certificate Program in Regulatory Affairs and Clinical Trials.
-
