Information about Synthetic Biology Assignments help

I am currently designing a bootcamp for synthetic biology. This is not a school assignment. I was hoping to gain very detailed information about:

1. The assignments Biology and BioChemistry majors are completing at different colleges.

2. The classes commonly taken for life sciences.

3. Common difficulties in understanding.

4. Your opinion, as a scientist, as to what skills are required to be able to work on simple synthetic biology projects independently.
