Engineering Genetic Circuits: Design at Coursera Course details
- What you'll learn
- Identify the different types of cells, their components, and structure.
- Discover the underlying structure of devices and their connection to genetic parts.
- Contrast different experimental techniques used in genetic construction.
- Evaluate the different principles used in genetic circuit design.
- This course gives an introduction to the biology and biochemistry necessary to understand genetic circuits. It starts by providing an engineering viewpoint on genetic circuit design and a review of cells and their structure. The second module introduces genetic parts and the importance of standards followed by a discussion of genetic devices used within circuit design. The last two modules cover experimental techniques and construction methods and principles applied during the design process.
- This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5934, part of CU Boulder's Master of Science in Electrical Engineering.
