BA/BS in Bioinformatik

This distance-learning bachelor's track combines computer science with biology and biotechnology. It is offered within the Applied Computer Science programme and prepares students to handle and interpret large volumes of biological and medical data. Students learn to process such data with software, algorithms and data-driven methods, which makes the field relevant to research institutions, pharmaceutical companies and agricultural science. Graduates develop an interdisciplinary profile for tasks that neither computer science nor biology can cover alone. The study model is designed for working adults, with modules that can be followed alongside a job. Enrolment is possible before the stated study start, and the course page lists the study start date. Applicants can register now, and the study model lets learners combine modules with professional commitments over the full programme length. The course page also highlights career prospects in medical institutions, research and pharmaceutical companies.
