  • Counselling and communication skills (modules I and II)
  • Topics in genetic counselling – Modules I and II
  • Molecular, cytogenetics and general genetics (semester one)
  • Quantitative, evolutionary and developmental genetics (semester two)

  • Genetics of disease (semester 2)
  • Ethical, legal and social issues in genetics
  • Education and Communication
 

Each module is taught on either Thursday or Friday over one semester of 15 weeks (12 taught).
 

A fee of £250.00 per 5 credit module and £500.00 per 10 credit module will be charged.
