The aim of the course:
The aim of this course is to inform the students about hereditary disorders of enzymes involved in cell metabolism, heredity patterns and mutation-function relations.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : Understand the types of small and large biomolecules and their basic metabolism11
PO - 2 : Understand generaly the metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids, lipids, and nucleic acids, and identify important inherited metabolic disorders.2
PO - 3 : Understand the general characteristics of genetically inherited metabolic disease8
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome
