MBG2004 | Fundamentals of Genetics | 3+0+0 | ECTS:5 | Year / Semester | Spring Semester | Level of Course | First Cycle | Status | Compulsory | Department | DEPARTMENT of MOLECULAR BIOLOGY and GENETICS | Prerequisites and co-requisites | None | Mode of Delivery | | Contact Hours | 14 weeks - 3 hours of lectures per week | Lecturer | Dr. Öğr. Üyesi Cihan İNAN | Co-Lecturer | | Language of instruction | Turkish | Professional practise ( internship ) | None | | The aim of the course: | To teach students almost all of the basic genetic concepts and to provide a basis for students in all areas of classical Mendelian genetics. For students who successfully complete this course, the ultimate goal of this course is to equip students with basic knowledge of Mendel's basic laws and knowledge about the contributions of modern genetics to this field, and to understand the further topics of the genetics. In order to achieve this, students will be able to develop their problem-solving and analytical thinking abilities and will be taught how geneticists solve problems and make new discoveries. In addition, it is to equip students with sufficient information about sexuality, sexual related, cytoplasmic inheritance, population genetics, evolutionary genetics and molecular genetics. For students who successfully complete this course, the ultimate goal of this course is to enable students to solve problems, to think analytically, to understand the power of DNA technology, to know the basic concepts of genetics and molecular biology, to be knowledgeable in all areas of genetics, to be able to comprehend advanced topics of cell and molecular biology it is to provide |
