“Genetics is the field of biology, where we study heredity, genetic variation & genetics in living beings. It is also known as “Science of Heredity”.
What is B.Sc Genetics?
The B.Sc Genetics course deals with a detailed study in the field of genetics of biology. The Genetics is the branch of biology that scientifically studies the genes, heredity and variations in the living organisms. The B.Sc Genetics students will be studying about the various subjects like cell biology, microbial genetics & technology, biostatistics, population genetics, genomic organisation, biochemistry, gene development, DNA technology etc.
The B.Sc Genetics students will be studying in detail the basic units of heredity called genes. The field of genetics explores the concepts and process of heredity, genetic variation and genes in the living organisms. It is also termed as the ‘science of heredity’.
The B.Sc Genetics students typically analyse the genetic structure of the living organism. It has been quite long where the field of genetics is making some news. Many researchers are conducting research at the gene levels to find out solutions to various diseases that are caused to humans. The advancement of science has fuelled the efforts of these researchers and they are coming up with discoveries and innovations.
The students who have studied their PUC or 10+2 with PCB/CBZ are eligible to apply for B.Sc Genetics.
Skills required to join B.Sc Genetics
The students joining B.Sc Genetics should have some important skills to become successful in the field of genetics. They should be passionate about the life sciences and should meet some qualities and skills.
Some of the qualities and skills required to join B.Sc Genetics courses are:
- The students should be capable to use scientific rules and methods to solve the problems on a real-time basis
