About the Course:

Genetics is one of the Important Basic Sciences which deals with genes and its inheritance. It covers the three broad areas like – Classical Genetics, Molecular Genetics and Evolutionary Genetics. Classical Genetics deals with Mendelian Principles of Inheritance and Cyto-genetics. Molecular Genetics deals with DNA, its structure, Chemical composition, DNA replication, Transcription and Translation. Evolutionary Genetics deals with Hardy Weinberg Principle, The Natural Selection and the Speciation.

The Science of Genetics has spread throughout all the aspects of the subject, Biology, during the last few decades and it has positioned itself in the central position of great significance in biological science. This invasion of genetics in biology has not only opened the scope in the mechanism of heredity and variation but also extends its area for the study of fundamental biological processes like biochemistry, microbiology, plant physiology, plant pathology, ecology, etc. When the fundamentals of genetics are applied in engineering then it is referred to as Genetic Engineering. Therefore, genetics has a great influence on industrial areas like medicine, agriculture, fisheries, forests, etc. The recent increase of biotechnology study has further upsurge the significance of genetics science.

The sequence and edit of the genome are now possible and the invention of new CRISPR technology, a most powerful gene-editing tool is a result of genetic engineering. All these latest inventions have encouraged and attracted students to pursue their careers in genetic engineering but still, most of the students are unaware of their future prospects in this field due to lack of information and proper guidance.
