Genomics is an evolving field of biomedical research that provides insights into genetic and non-genetic diseases. In this unit, students will explore the principles of genomics, proteomics and bioinformatics. Students will manipulate and interrogate DNA sequences and other genomic information using high-level data analysis techniques, supported by digital technologies.
On completion of this unit students should be able to:
Students will attend on campus classes as well as engage in learning activities through ECUs LMS

Students will engage in learning experiences through ECUs LMS as well as additional ECU l
Industry professionals consult on the curriculum and provide guest lectures. Online genomic and bioinformatic analyses using shareware applications encourage critical thinking and self-analysis skills through reflective activities. Students undertake peer review as part of their learning and build digital capabilities through computational activities.
