The Graduate Certificate in Applied Science (Bioinformatics) is part of an articulated award program that provides a professional qualification to biologists and computer scientists working in industry, research and education.
Bioinformatics brings together the fields of life science, computer science and statistics.
Two streams of study are offered in the postgraduate program in bioinformatics. Stream A is for students with an information technology background and Stream B is for students with a strong background in molecular biology.
The coursework program will provide students with a coordinated approach to bioinformatics, thus developing expertise to perform and develop the analysis of biological data with underlying competencies in the life sciences, computer science and statistics.
Upon completion of the Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma or Masters, graduates will have a specialist knowledge and understanding of the topic of bioinformatics. In addition, the Masters will provide the option of experience in carrying out and completing a bioinformatics research project and report.
