M.Sc Bioinformatics

Master of Science in Bioinformatics

M.Sc Bioinformatics or Master of Science in Bioinformatics is a Post-Graduate Bioinformatics course. The application of statistics and computer science to the subject of molecular biology is known as bioinformatics. The Master of Science in Bioinformatics program prepares students for careers in computational biology/bioinformatics by providing instruction in molecular biology, information technology, statistics, and bioinformatics.

The Master of Science in Bioinformatics program provides hands-on experience in the essential multidisciplinary fields of genomics, proteomics, protein engineering, metabolic pathway engineering, Pharmacogenomics, the discovery of new drugs and vaccines, molecular diagnostic kits, and Agro-Biotechnology. The Bioinformatics course takes two years to complete and is divided into four semesters.
