Genetics degrees teach students topics related to heredity, from passing on the genetic information of the parents to the offspring, to the study of genetic diseases and disorders. By learning advanced Organic Chemistry, Biology and Physics, including classes on cell biology, genomics, bioinformatics and genetic modelling, students go on to develop effective drugs, sustainable agriculture and learn to identify and treat genetic diseases, such as cancer.
