Why study Genetics?
Study an extended major in genetics to advance your knowledge in genetic structure, genetic interaction and the genetic basis of traits.
We expand your critical thinking and teach you to analyse complex biological data using the latest genetic technologies. You'll learn to translate genetic information into meaningful insights that may lead to new discoveries.
Career paths for geneticists are some of the broadest available, ranging from ecology to research, medicine and agriculture.
Genetics is available as a minor, major and extended major.
