• The Carnegie Mellon University offers an M.Sc in Computational Biology program for a duration of 2 years.
  • It is a Full-time course.
  • The MSCB program seeks to train the world’s best Computational Biologists at the Master’s level. The curriculum provides both breadth and depth of training in Computational Biology and is built on a solid foundation of Biology, Computer Science, Statistics, and Machine Learning (Data Sciences). 
  • The M.S. in Computational Biology program enrolls students who desire a more immediate career in industry or who wish to explore computational biology without committing to a doctoral program.
  • Students who have completed the program have gone on to work in a wide range of industries in biotech and pharma as well as government and academic institutions. 
  • The integrated discipline of computational biology/bioinformatics represents the application of modern computer science, statistics, and mathematics to exploring biological and biomedical problems.
  • The Department of Biological Sciences in the Mellon College of Science and the Computational Biology Department in the School of Computer Science combine their world-class strengths in computer science and biology with the strong tradition of interdisciplinary research at Carnegie Mellon into a unique training program in this emerging field.
  • Job opportunities after the M.Sc in Computational Biology and the average salary goes up to 1,01,640 USD.
