生物技术科学学士-生物信息学

伍斯特州立大学提供生物技术课程，以满足实验实验室和生物技术行业制造设施中熟练的实验室助理的需求。生物技术专业的毕业生接受过组织培养，分子生物学，蛋白质纯化，分析化学和法规事务方面的培训，并有资格实习。此外，学生可以选择专注于医学专业的生物技术专业。<br> <br>这种跨学科的学习目的是使学生为进入生物信息学，计算生物学，计算化学的计算机密集领域做好准备。以及分子建模，包括基因组学和蛋白质组学。随着包括人类基因组在内的全序列基因组的数量不断增加，诸如GenBank和EMBL之类的数据库的增长速度已使存储，
The purpose of this interdisciplinary concentration is to prepare students to enter the computer-intensive fields of bioinformatics, computational biology, computational chemistry, and molecular modeling including genomics and proteomics. With the ever increasing number of fully sequenced genomes, including the human genome, databases such as GenBank and EMBL have grown at such a rate that storing, organizing, indexing, and ultimately mining the data have become key to answering biological questions. Questions of gene expression have led to computational biology, the process of analyzing genomic sequences and to the field of proteomics, the understanding of protein structure and function. The information obtained by computational biology and computational chemistry is used in the design of new drugs to treat a variety of diseases.
