. "Synthetic biology lab II"@en . . "4" . "Learning outcomes\nThe aim of the lab is to guide the students through the entire creative cycle required for the design of synthetic biological systems with novel functions. The participants will go through all stages of the design-build-test process followed by analysis and interpretation of the outcome. The analysis stage provides new ideas for improving the performance of the designed cells, or even further, ideas for novel approaches and functions. In this way, the course can potentially evolve into continuously developing engineering projects, where the prototypes will be improved and further developed in each year.\nBrief description of content\nThe course is divided into 4-5 subprojects. Every project will start with the in silico design of the genetic/protein circuits to be built with the aim to gain the desired biological function. This stage will be held separately, few weeks before the laboratory stage in order to order the synthetic DNA and other missing reagents. Each student will participate in at least two different projects. The list of the projects is subject to changes in each year depending on the progress and emerging new ideas." . . "Presential"@en .

"The international three-year bachelor's programme in Science and Technology has innovative content and comprises selected parts of all taught in the Faculty of Science and Technology. It provides a broad overview of natural and exact sciences and technologies.\n\nIn the first year, students study subjects which give good basic knowledge and prepare them to work with modern technologies and materials. Later it is possible to choose a suitable field of specialisation based on the acquired knowledge about different areas. Students can choose a combined specialisation in genetics and biotechnology, bioengineering and robotics, or chemistry and materials science. Learning outcomes\nThe student who has completed the curriculum:\n1) possesses a sufficient level of knowledge in mathematics and natural and exact sciences to continue professional studies on Master's level and work in professions that require basic knowledge in the field and simpler working skills;\n2) understand the general principles of the main areas of natural sciences, orientates in the basic principles of the fields of natural sciences and can describe these by basic concepts;\n3) knows the main research methods used in the field and understands the nature of scientific method;\n4) knows how to collect professional information by using relevant methods and tools, and interpret the information critically and creatively;\n5) is able to plan and complete professional assignments, choosing and implementing the suitable methods and technologies;\n6) is able to analyse the issues related to the field in oral and written form and participate in the respective discussions;\n7) is able to assess the theoretical and application value of knowledge and skills obtained during the completion of the curriculum from both the personal and social perspective, taking into account the scientific, social and ethical aspects;\n8) has acquired the necessary learning skills and needs for constant professional development and lifelong learning."@en . . . . .
