During this course, students will study what genetic engineering is, how this relatively new biotechnology works and key examples of genetic engineering in both agriculture and medicine. The foci of this course are 1) the societal, ethical, political and economic issues that arise due to the use of genetic engineering technology and 2) the basic science of genes, gene expression and recombinant DNA technology that makes genetic engineering possible. Students will analyze and discuss genetic engineering issues with an eye toward making informed personal decisions about the use of this technology. During the laboratory element of this course, students will engage in genetic analysis, genetic engineering of cells and a self designed project related to genetic engineering. Credits: 4 Suffix: sci Clock Hours - (Lect-Lab): (3-3)
