Curriculum in Genomic Engineering

该奖项资助了哥伦比亚大学在Edward F.伦纳德。 该项目的总体目标是开发和运行一个基因组工程课程，该课程与哥伦比亚大学项目教师及其同事开展的基因组工程研究活动有关。 拟议的课程轨道旨在以有效的方式提供对基因组科学的中心思想和目标的广泛理解。 课程轨道将encrouage当前的工程知识在基因组科学和工程的核心问题的全面关注。 工程和计算机科学专业的学生广泛接触基因组科学和工程将鼓励对该领域的持续承诺，并发展有充分依据和广泛影响的解决方案，而不是轶事或战术，解决基因组学问题。

This award funds a three year Combined Research-Curriculum Development (CRCD) program, entitled "Curriculum in Genomic Engineering," at Columbia University under the direction of Dr. Edward F. Leonard. The overall objective of this project is to develop and operate a course track in Genomic Engineering that is related to research activities in genomic engineering undertaken by the project faculty and their colleagues at Columbia University. The proposed course track is designed to provide a broad understanding of the central ideas and goals of genomic science in an efficient manner. The course track will encrouage the comprehensive focusing of current engineering knowledge on core problems in genomic science and engineering. Broad exposure of engineering and computer science students to genomic science and engineering will encourage sustained commitment to the field and the development of well-founded and broad-reaching, rather than anecdotal or tactical, solutions to problems in genomics.
