Master of Engineering in Bioinformatics

M.E (Bioinformatics) or Master of Engineering in Bioinformatics is a two-year Post-Graduate Bioinformatics course. Bioinformatics is the application of computer science and information technology to the field of biology and medicine. The Master of Engineering course in Bioinformatics applies methods of computer science, artificial intelligence, mathematics, and statistics to biological data, such as genome DNA sequences, or protein structures.

Bio-informaticians usually work as experts within biomedical or pharmaceutical R&D. The Master of Engineering degree program in Bioinformatics immerses students in the topics and applied methods of computational modeling, molecular biology, systems biology, structural biology, proteomics, genomic sequencing, and genomic analysis, microarrays, and microarray analysis. 

M.E (Bioinformatics) Eligibility                       

• Aspiring students should have passed a B.E./B.Tech or equivalent exam from a recognized university board.
• Some reputed colleges and institutes conduct an entrance examination for admission.
