ASI 741 - Quantitative Genetics Applications of Matrix Algebra Credits: 1
The goal of this course is development of skills in matrix algebra to describe and solve problems in the agricultural and life sciences, with particular focus on quantitative genetics. The course is designed for students with no prior knowledge of matrix algebra, and whose formal training in mathematics may be somewhat limited. It will consider the vocabulary, concepts, application and, to a lesser extent, theory of matrix algebra that is relevant to graduate students in the agricultural and life sciences. Application exercises will consider ecological systems, genotypic transition matrices, selection indices, and the numerator relationship matrix. Application of methods such as least squares, and canonical transformation to solve problems in the biological sciences using matrix algebra will also be introduced.

ASI 742 - Cybersheep: A Genetic Simulation Game Credits: 1
The goal of this course is for students to be able to make informed and effective decisions in a livestock breeding program. In order to accomplish this goal, the course will provide hands-on experience with selection and mating decisions, and their consequences through a genetic simulation. Genetic gains require time to achieve and there is very little opportunity for students to witness the consequences of breeding decisions in a course. The simulation is designed to offer an opportunity to see in real-time, the outcome of decision-making, and to experience the stochastic (chance) elements of a breeding program.
