BSc Bioinformatics

Bioinformatics combines computer science with molecular biology to give you fundamental insights into life processes. The need for bioinformatics has been triggered by huge scientific advances in collecting biological data.

As the key to extracting meaningful information from this data, bioinformatics is essential for an in-depth understanding of human diseases as well as for the identification of new molecular targets and therapeutic molecules for drug discovery.

You will graduate with the knowledge and skills to tackle real-world life science problems from an informatics and computational perspective.
