Bachelor of Science
The UAB Undergraduate Program in Bioinformatics (BIOI) is an interdisciplinary major between the Institute of Informatics and Department of Genetics in the School of Medicine and the Department of Computer Science in the College of Arts and Sciences. Our society's accelerated scientific growth is generating an unprecedented quantity of information, while computer science is learning how to handle this information through developments in data science. In particular, data from the sequencing of the human genome is helping us better understand living systems and is guiding treatment of human disease through precision medicine. That information must be stored, managed, and analyzed to reveal its biological meaning to help shape the future of research and healthcare.
