Groups Theory
(5 Cr.)
In mathematics, a group is an algebraic structure consisting of a set together with an operation that combines
any two of its elements to form a third element. To qualify as a group, the set and the operation must satisfy a few
conditions called group axioms, namely closure, associativity, identity and invertibility. Many familiar mathematical
structures such as number systems obey these axioms: for example, the integers endowed with the addition operation
form a group. However, the abstract formalization of the group axioms, detached as it is from the concrete nature of
any particular group and its operation, allows entities with highly diverse mathematical origins in abstract algebra and
beyond to be handled in a flexible way, while retaining their essential structural aspects. The ubiquity of groups in
numerous areas within and outside mathematics makes them a central organizing principle of contemporary
mathematics

Nuclear Chemistry
(5 Cr.)
Nuclear chemistry is the subfield of chemistry dealing with radioactivity, nuclear processes and nuclear
properties. It is the chemistry of radioactive elements such as the actinides, radium and radon together with the
chemistry associated with equipment (such as nuclear reactors) which are designed to perform nuclear processes. This
includes the corrosion of surfaces and the behavior under conditions of both normal and abnormal operation (such as
during an accident). An important area is the behavior of objects and materials after being placed into a waste store or
otherwise disposed of. The study of the chemical effects resulting from the absorption of radiation within living
animals, plants, and other materials. The radiation chemistry controls much of radiation biology as radiation has an
48 ......................................................................................... ‫ لوائح املقررات والتوصيف‬:‫اختصاصات كلية العلوم والفنون‬
effect on living things at the molecular scale, to explain it another way the radiation alters the biochemical within an
organism, the alteration of the bimolecular then changes the chemistry which occurs within the organism, this change
in biochemistry then can lead to a biological outcome. As a result nuclear chemistry greatly assists the understanding
of medical treatments (such as cancer radiotherapy) and has enabled these treatments to improve. The study of the
production and use of radioactive sources for a range of processes. These include radiotherapy in medical
applications; the use of radioactive tracers within industry, science and the environment; and the use of radiation to
modify materials such as polymers. The study and use of nuclear processes in non-radioactive areas of human activity.

constituents of foods.
Bioinformatics
SLBI602
(5 Cr.)
This course introduces the scientist to Bioinformatics, which uses computer databases to store, retrieve and
assist in understanding biological information. Genome-scale sequencing projects have led to an explosion of genetic
sequences available for automated analysis. These gene sequences are the codes, which direct the production of
proteins that in turn regulate all life processes. The student will be shown how these sequences can lead to a much
fuller understanding of many biological processes allowing pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to determine
for example new drug targets or to predict if particular drugs are applicable to all patients. Students will be introduced
to the basic concepts behind Bioinformatics and Computational Biology tools. Hands-on sessions will familiarize
students with the details and use of the most commonly used online tools and resources. The course will cover the use
of NCBI's Entrez, BLAST, PSI-BLAST, ClustalW, Pfam, PRINTS, BLOCKS, Prosite and the PDB. An introduction
to database design and the principles of programming languages will be provided.
