Objective: 
Course objectives:
This course will enable the students to –
1. Design and conduct experiments, using a broad variety of experimental techniques, and interpret the data obtained to draw conclusions about whether the results do or do not support a hypothesis being tested and whether the experimental design was appropriate.
2. Work collaboratively with other students and with faculty, understanding that most scientific knowledge/conclusions draw(s) on multiple sources of data and multiple experimental approaches.
3. Learn “best approaches” for conducting experiments including laboratory safety, data eplication and quality control, record keeping, and other aspects of “responsible conduct of research”.
