Genomics is the compilation, characterization, and evaluation of DNA sequence information and its integration with established methods and genetic knowledge. This course will introduce the students to the study of genome structure and function and its application to biomedicine, agriculture, and evolution. Outcome: Students will acquire an in-depth knowledge of the nature of genome structure, function, and evolution as well as the methods used to obtain and evaluate this knowledge and its application to systems biology and biomedicine.

1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Special areas of bioinformatics outside the usual curriculum that vary each time the course is offered. Outcome: Students will gain knowledge in and master a unique topic in bioinformatics.
-
1.00 - 4.00 Credits
An independent research experience involving laboratory experiments, computer program development, or statistical analysis or any combination of these performed off-campus under the mentorship of a Bioinformatics scientist not affiliated with Loyola. Outcome: All students will acquire skills to perform and report on independent research and to be intellectually responsible for evaluating their own and related work. Other outcomes will include at least one of the following: Experimental expertise, statistical evalulation of data sets, design and use of computational tools.

To successfully complete a request for tutoring, students must visit www.luc.edu/tutoringrequest Small group tutoring pairs several students from the same course and same professor with a trained peer tutor who has successfully earned credit for the course. Groups meet once weekly at the Center for Tutoring and Academic Excellence (Sullivan Center) on the Lake Shore Campus.
