Degrees Offered: Master of Science in Computational Biology
The Master of Science in Computational Biology seeks to train students at the interface of biology, computational science, and mathematical science. The program will train students to pose biological problems in mathematical terms using techniques of mathematical modeling. It will teach students how to use computational, numerical and analytic tools to aid in the analysis of mathematical models. Furthermore, it will show students how to interpret their mathematical results in biological terms. This program will be of interest to any student who is interested in a truly inter-disciplinary learning experience.
