DNA CONTENTS DNA Science I DNA Science II Class Pictures Web Links Blackboard The biotechnology department offers two preparatory classes for Senior Research/Mentorship. DNA Science I is intended to provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary for performing molecular biology research. The course focuses on developing an understanding of critical concepts and techniques of recombinant DNA technologies in experimental biology. DNA Science II places emphasis on the biological basis of human inheritance and the human genome project, including its technological challenges and its implications for biology, ethics, law, and society. DNA Science I is a prerequisite for the Biotechnology Research Laboratory's Mentorship Program. The class also serves as a prerequisite for DNA Science II, which is only offered in the spring semester.
