RICE University in collaboration with edX education environment has designed a special course on defining DNA and its importance. The course will explore the role of DNA possessing its code and carrying genetic information. The course will explore the importance of DNA by its identification as well as the mechanisms as programmed in the code discovered to date. The course will progress towards the discovery and growth of biological sciences owing to DNA starting it as the fundamental unit.
The DNA: Biology’s Genetic Code course will explore the structure of DNA along with its mode of packaging, replication and manipulation mechanisms. The course will cover several offerings such as video lectures, case studies, molecular models and research articles along with assessment requirements such as homework and final exam for completion. The DNA: Biology’s Genetic Code certification course is planned as an intermediate course requiring prerequisites from the candidate such as high school level biology and chemistry and will run for a duration for 6 weeks.
