Profile
Bioinformatics involves the development and application of IT-based solutions for analysing and handling biological and medical data, such as DNA sequences and protein structures. Today, bioinformatics plays an important role in most biological and medical discoveries and workflows concerned with molecular data, such as large-scale genome-sequencing projects. A successful bioinformatics solution combines theoretical and practical knowledge from several areas of science, which is what the two-year MSc in Bioinformatics programme at Aarhus University offers.The MSc in Bioinformatics programme is open to all students with a BSc degree in the natural, technical or health sciences with a significant content of biological and/or computational subjects, such as a BSc degree in bioinformatics, biology, molecular biology, mathematics, statistics or computer science. Students on the programme will be exposed to the many topics in bioinformatics through lectures, projects and exercise sessions; they will specialise in a bioinformatics subject during their thesis work, while also acquiring general competencies in bioinformatics and IT.Central classes are Genomes and Protein Structures, Next-Generation Sequencing, Medical Genome Analysis, Applied Programming, Algorithms in Bioinformatics, and Statistical Methods in Bioinformatics. Together these courses cover core topics of bioinformatics, building upon biology, statistics and computer science.
