Depending on your interests, you may focus your studies and research on biological sciences or computer sciences/mathematical science. Regardless of your specialization, the program provides a strong intellectual foundation in both areas. For example, biologists will learn the computational tools needed to conduct bioinformatic research, and mathematicians and computer scientists will gain a background in general biology and genetics.

The program features exciting research opportunities across disciplines, including collaborative projects in the Institute for Bioinformatics and Evolutionary Studies (IBEST)
