This master's program trains interdisciplinary scientists who combine life-science knowledge with computer science, informatics and statistics.
The department treats biology, computer science and mathematics as equal pillars. Students become comfortable in each and then specialize in one, working beside researchers who turn very large biological datasets into insight for health care and the environment.
Course choices are broad, from virology to environmental topics, from software design to artificial intelligence, and from Bayesian statistics to regression. Interdisciplinary offerings include visualizing biological data, mining biomedical databases, biological simulation and statistical genetics. Applicants can request information or apply from the program page, which also lists application requirements. Graduates are prepared for roles that involve analyzing biological data to support health care and environmental work.
