About this course
Bioinformatics is dynamic and evolving, representing one of the most rapidly growing and challenging areas in science and technology today.
The MMU Bioinformatics programme is a balance of IT and Life Sciences plus training in specific applications. A significant component of our programme is practical laboratory experience and problem-based learning, alongside student presentations and lectures in small classes. Projects and Industry experience add another dimension to the knowledge gained in lectures.
