11. Content This course contains procedures for various techniques commonly used in recombinant genetics and DNA cloning. In addition, the lecture will discuss the various benefits and applications of recombinant genetic techniques in solving problems at the genetic and molecular level. Studies on biosafety, bioethics and pros and cons of genetically engineered products and GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms) are also discussed for understanding science and solving environmental problems.

Assignments are given to students for further presentation. The learning model is in the form of small group discussion, discovery learning, and problem base learning/case study methods.

12. Exams and assessment formats

e.g. one official mid semester exam (90 minutes) and one official

final oral exam (90 minutes), one take-home written assignments

13. Study and examination requirements

Requirements for successfully passing the module

e.g. the mid semester exam grade in the module is composed of 25% performance on exams, the final exam is 25%. take-home assignments, 50% Students must have a final grade of 70% or higher to pass
