Molecular Genetics Major (BAdvSci)

Overview

This major is part of a larger course (Bachelor of Advanced Science). This information is specific to the major, please refer to the course for more information.

What you'll learn

• demonstrate an advanced knowledge of the nature of science, its methods and processes, an advanced capacity to apply molecular genetic and biochemical concepts in a range of theoretical and practical situations, and the ability to contribute new knowledge to the molecular biosciences through research
• critically, logically and rationally analyse challenging and multi-faceted problems in molecular genetics, address them by applying practical and theoretical tools and critically evaluate findings within the current body of disciplinary knowledge
• access and make judgements on the value of available knowledge using a variety of tools, and incorporate them into the planning, conduct and communication of their own findings
• communicate effectively by demonstrating the capacity to listen and respond (using both written and spoken language) to clients, staff, professionals, management and industry and conform to discipline standards in presentations and publications
• use established and emerging technologies in molecular biosciences and apply them to address complex research questions
• engage in self-driven continuous discipline and professional education and training in molecular genetics
• participate in the generation and application of science in addressing global problems while understanding international ethical and professional standards in molecular biosciences
• work collaboratively and respectfully with scientists from a range of cultural backgrounds and understand the cultural issues that impact research in the molecular sciences or the broader profession
• be able to work professionally and ethically as an independent molecular geneticist and collaboratively within teams either as a professional leader or collaborator using effective problem solving and decision making skills within the professional context of their area of study; comply with legislation relevant to the molecular biosciences
