Genetics courses can help you learn DNA structure, gene expression, genetic variation, and inheritance patterns. You can build skills in data analysis, laboratory techniques, and interpreting genetic information for research or clinical applications. Many courses introduce tools like CRISPR for gene editing, bioinformatics software for analyzing genetic data, and sequencing technologies that are essential for understanding genetic sequences and their implications in health and disease.
