Bachelor's in Genetics and Cell Biology

Genetics and Cell Biology is a Bachelor program taught at Dublin City University, Ireland. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time (Four Years) options.

Dublin City University offers a BSc in Genetics and Cell Biology (DC168). You study theoretical genetics and cell biology alongside practical laboratory skills. Modules cover areas such as How Life Works, Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and topics including cell structure and function, genomics, and advanced cell biology.

Delivery is full-time, with a mix of pre-recorded, live on-line, and face-to-face lectures. The programme includes placements: in third year you complete a nine-month INTRA work placement, and in final year you combine core modules with either a research stream (a research project under lecturer supervision) or a biopharmaceutical stream with industry focused modules.
