Bioengineering 102 Remote Class - Learn at Your Own Pace - Advanced DNA Programming

This course includes all the materials you need to to learn to program DNA. Classes are recorded and online. You can see an example class here

Teachers are available to answer your questions whenever you need them.

Certificate given upon completion of the course. 

The email you use to pay for this class will be sent an invite for our online classroom so keep a look-out.

Choose our payment plan option on check-out to make 4 monthly payments. See more information here.

The class is meant to be taken over 2 months as there are 8 weeks of lectures and experiments. The videos can be viewed remote online and you can follow along with hands-on experiments that we ship to you. The value of the supplies alone is worth the cost of the class! We will send all you all the class links and info once you register.

The class is remote so you can do it from anywhere. 

This class will take a few hours a week to perform experiments that can be done at your own pace.

This two month class will go through how to design your own DNA to genetically modify organisms. At the beginning of the two months we will ship you all the materials required for the class. There is also a facebook group to discuss the class and guides and tutorials.
