General Laboratory Techniques and Safety Co-requisite ABCT2101 Biochemistry

Teaching Pattern

Methodology Experiments will be carried out by students to explore and apply what they learned in lecture sessions. Students work together in teams using basic microbial and biochemical techniques, operating various instruments, and running software packages to solve problems on topics discussed as well as presenting their experimental results. Report writing is required for individual students to scrutinize their analytical, problem solving, communication, judgement and other skills. -- 1 of 2 --
