Program Goals & Outcomes

Combination of lab skills associated with aseptic technique, culturing, and identification with the application of techniques including DNA extraction, DNA amplification, protein purification, protein gel electrophoresis, western blotting, database mining, and scientific presentation. Completion is assessed by projects associated with the identification of a microorganism and presentation of a poster covering DNA Barcoding of a specimen from either a fungal, invertebrate, or vertebrate source.

All micro-credentials are fully stackable with all other academic programs, allowing students to build customized pathways toward certificates, associate degrees, or even bachelor’s degrees.

Students must complete the required coursework to earn this micro-credential.
