This project implements a molecular genetics laboratory course. A course addition of this type enriches the laboratory offerings in the Biology Department. There are three primary goals to the project. The first goal is to teach students the basic biological and biochemical principles underlying molecular genetic techniques. The second goal is to give students practical experience in a variety of up-to-date molecular genetic techniques. These techniques can be used to examine the genetics of Arabidopsis thaliana, a model research organism for the study of the molecular genetics of plant growth and development. The third goal is to introduce the students to a sample of research programs that utilize molecular genetics and familiarize the students with careers in molecular genetics. The first two goals can be accomplished through the use of lecture and laboratory sections. The third goal of exposing students to graduate and career options can be accomplished through the current departmental seminar series, through which researchers in the field of molecular genetics are invited to campus to discuss their work.

本计画实施分子遗传学实验课程。 这种类型的课程丰富了生物系的实验室课程。 该项目有三个主要目标。 第一个目标是教授学生分子遗传技术的基本生物学和生物化学原理。 第二个目标是让学生在各种最新的分子遗传技术的实践经验。 这些技术可用于研究拟南芥的遗传学，拟南芥是植物生长和发育的分子遗传学研究的模式生物。 第三个目标是向学生介绍利用分子遗传学的研究项目的样本，并使学生熟悉分子遗传学的职业。 前两个目标可以通过使用讲座和实验室部分来实现。 第三个目标是让学生接触到研究生和职业选择，可以通过目前的部门研讨会系列来实现，通过该系列，分子遗传学领域的研究人员被邀请到校园讨论他们的工作。
