Matrix Of The Course Learning Outcomes Versus Program Outcomes
| D.9. Key Learning Outcomes | Contrubition level* | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | |
| 1. Doctorate candidates are trained as a scientist and educated and experienced with the knowledge on inherited metabolic diseases, they will be able to perform advanced analytical chemistry and molecular genetics methods. | X | ||||
| 2. Doctorate candidates will be qualified at the end of the program as a result of applying laboratory experiments and studies during their thesis studies, earning theoretical knowledge from lectures , and they can continue their research activities as an independent researcher. | X | ||||
| 3. They are informed with good laboratory practices and the biosafety rules and they obey these rules for their laboratory studies. They will be knowledged for iterpretation of the primary and advanced metabolic and molecular genetics tests and experiments for thediagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases | X | ||||
| 4. They can develop new technologies which can be used for identification of metabolic diseases at the national level. They can work for development of new methods for metabolic screening programs. | X | ||||
| 5. They can criticise their own knowledge as a qualified scientist who are able to plans original research and applies it, they can apply and obey ethical rules in their studies working with a team or alone. | X | ||||
| 6. Multidiciplinary approach are needed for Metabolism research. This study area is known as biochemical genetics and requires to apply many different research activities together in the field of molecular genetics, anlytical chemistry, biochemistry, genetics, molecular cell biology. At the end of the program, trainees will be qualified on basic principles of these fields and experienced with the application of different laboratory methodologies. | X | ||||
| 7. Graduate students works in an atmosphere which is designed for interdiciplinary team research. | X | ||||
| 8. They can follow up recent advances in the field of molecular metabolism and literature at international level. | X | ||||
