生物信息学和计算生物学理学硕士

WPI的生物信息学和计算生物学（BCB）的MS计划将使您成为真正的跨学科科学家，一方面拥有计算机科学，信息学和统计学的专业知识，另一方面拥有生命科学的专业知识。<br>虽然其他学校在生物计划中集中提供生物信息学，但WPI的BCB部门同样从生物，计算机科学和数学这三个学科中吸取教训。您将精通每种技术，并精通其中一种，与专家研究人员一起将惊人的生物数据转化为新知识，并发现有意义的方法来改善医疗保健和环境。攻读生物信息学和计算生物学硕士学位的学生，必须完成研究生级别的相关工作至少33个学分
Drawing on expertise and resources from nine university departments, this program provides unique interdisciplinary training to prepare you to tackle the most cutting-edge problems in genetics, genomics, population biology, mathematical modeling, statistics and computer science.<br><br>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.<br><br>The program features exciting research opportunities across disciplines, including collaborative projects in the Institute for Bioinformatics and Evolutionary Studies (IBEST).
