Key learning outcomes
|
The PhD branch of study Agricultural Biotechnology provides a comprehensive education in a modern and dynamically developing field and focuses mainly on the fields of plant and animal biotechnology and molecular biology and their applications in genetics and breeding. Attention is paid to molecular genetic techniques, analysis of structure and function of plant and animal genomes, modern breeding techniques including molecular marking techniques, molecular selection and molecular diagnostics of pathogens, recombinant DNA techniques and genetic modification, biostatistics and language skills of students. Emphasis is placed on further development and training in the field of critical thinking, the ability to independently and comprehensively analyze professional information, design and implement experimental and theoretical work, as well as adequately evaluate and publish the results obtained. Great attention is paid to the practical mastery of various modern instrumental and laboratory techniques and procedures of molecular biology and biotechnology.
