Hosted by Estelle Hrabak, associate professor and interim program coordinator for the Genetics major, and several current Genetics undergraduates. The speakers talk about the program’s curriculum and possible careers for Genetics majors and answer questions from admitted students.
UNH has one of the few dedicated genetics majors in the United States. Students in the genetics degree program interact with faculty committed to excellence in teaching, research and student advising, and our teaching labs provide hands-on training in current research techniques. Our faculty conduct research on diverse topics including evolution, gene structure and function, host-microbe interactions, genome sequencing and analysis, heredity and diversity in populations. There are many opportunities for students to work in faculty laboratories and present research at scientific conferences on and off campus.
