Bachelor of Science - Bioinformatics

As a Bioinformatics major, students will take courses in computer science, computational biology, mathematics, statistics and chemistry. Dive into research and project-based coursework alongside their professors, and present professional-level research as an undergraduate.

Bioinformatics students have conducted research on — for example — the fungal microbiomes of native plants. And connect with Austin’s growing biotechnology industry, where companies are using bioinformatics to develop solutions to problems in agriculture as well as genetic testing and personalized medicine.
