- Class Description:
- This course is a survey of genetics for biology majors. The goal of this course is for students to develop an understanding of the principles of genetics. This includes understanding the transmission of genetic information from one generation to the next, how genetic information is expressed in cells and organisms and how the information within a population can change over time. The course will also discuss the practical applications of genetics and the new methods being used to understand genetic inheritance and genetic control of traits. Topics that will be covered in the course include Mendelian genetics, dominance, epistasis, probability & chi-square, sex chromosomes, nucleic acid & chromosome structure, replication of DNA, linkage, crossing over, gene mapping, recombination in microorganisms, transposable genetic elements, variations in chromosome number and structure, regulation of gene expression, mutation and DNA repair mechanisms, molecular genetics, cloning and sequencing of genes, genomics, the genetics of cancer, the inheritance of complex traits & heritability, and population genetics.

- The Biol 3020 prereq will be waived if you have taken an upper level biochemistry course. Any majors may register as long as your have the prereqs. Contact Sue (smk@umn.edu) with questions. This course section is fully online. All work and tests are completed online. Students need stable internet access, a computer, a microphone, and a webcam that allow all exams to be remotely proctored with video and audio recording. Students are welcome to meet with the instructor in person during weekly office hours (or at other times) in order to ask questions or discuss course material.
- Class Description:
- This is a fully online section offered through Online and Distance Learning (ODL), College of Continuing Education. You work independently, not as part of a student group. Visit "Class URL" for ODL policy, fee, and financial aid information. This course is intended to provide you with a broad understanding of genetics. In the first part of the course you will explore the structure, replication, and expression of the genetic material known as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). As you examine DNA, you will gain an understanding of the molecular structure of DNA and its organization into units called genes. The next part of the course emphasizes inheritance patterns. In it, you will examine many types of inheritance patterns, including simple Mendelian inheritance, extra-chromosomal inheritance, linkage, and the quantitative traits that are determined by multiple genes. The last part of the course examines the genetic technologies that are used to analyze the genetic compositions of species and have applications in our everyday lives. This course ends with a consideration of genetics at the level of populations, and how the genetic compositions of populations evolve over time.
