Molecular Biology and Genetics understand how the molecules that make up the cells define the behavior of living things. Biologists use genetic molecular tools to study the functions of those molecules. Groups in the department use these approaches to study a broad variety of issues. At Al-Biruni University, the department engages in training, cutting-edge research and teaching to improve scientific discovery. Moreover, to find answers and solutions to basic questions in this particular field of science.
Department of Molecular Biology & Genetics
The program of Molecular Biology and Genetics helps to offer unmatched opportunities to understand the basic principles of biology. In addition to applying biological knowledge to other fields such as environmental, agricultural, medical and critical problems. The students and faculty involved in this department have made it their goal to deliver the highest standard of research in subjects related to tissues, cells, organisms, environment etc.
Curriculum
Students gain experience in the laboratory during their studies in this program, since it is essential to research in order to become a molecular biologist. Other courses that are taught as fundamental courses in this program include:
Genetics
Cell Biology
General Biology
Chemistry
Molecular Genetics
Biotechnology
Recombinant DNA technology
Gene and Cellular Therapy
The students are encouraged to work with advanced lab equipment and ultimately taught how to do deductive reasoning and improve their critical thinking.
Student Opportunities
Along with modern laboratories and equipment, students have a wide range of facilities to choose from the campus itself. Other than that, they are able to work in government and industries. Graduates can later become molecular biologists who can serve as consultants able to address scientific issues. Moreover, they can find new ways to diagnose and treat diseases. Teachers teach the students how to conduct the research and questions scientific thinking through existing models.
