Master of Science [M.Sc] [Bioinformatics] From Queen Mary, University of London

This programme will teach you how to manage and manipulate large datasets to reveal new insights in biological sciences.Ê You will get intensive training in a computer-based approach to biological research, with the opportunity to develop specialist skills in computer programming, data analysis, statistics and computational biology.

New analytical techniques deliver ever more data about genes, proteins, metabolites and the interactions between them. Bioinformatics is the discipline tasked with turning all this data into useful information and new biological knowledge. With applications spanning the breadth of life science disciplines, there is now high demand for trained bioinformaticians.

Prior experience of computer programming is not required as you will be taught the latest tools and techniques in bioinformatics, which you will then apply to your own research project.Ê You will also collaborate with peers to build new bioinformatics solutions to real-world problems as part of an innovative group project.Ê
