Descriptive statistic was performed and the results indicated that they were lack of knowledge about genetics topic.

Students were not comfortable to use OMIM and draw pedigree. Respondents argued that more education strategy could be applied to improve student knowledge and understanding of the genetics. Conclusion : Introduction and recognition of genetics topic in nursing education was needed. Integration of genetics topic into nursing education can be applied by the existing subject or by itself subject to students; either individually or classically. }, issn = {2406-8799}, pages = {24--33} doi = {10.14710/nmjn.v5i1.10188}, url = {https://ejournal.undip.ac.id/index.php/medianers/article/view/10188} }
