Bioinformatics Minor for Majors in Other Disciplines*

Required Courses

Total Required Credits: 24-32

* For students majoring in a discipline other than biology, biochemistry, or computer science.

** The bioinformatics minor requires completion of a minimum of 24 credits in biology and computer science beyond what may already be required for the student’s major or for another minor. Courses required in this minor may also be counted towards the student’s major or another minor but at least 4 biology credits and 4 computer science credits must be completed exclusively for this minor. Students satisfying core requirements in both biology and computer science would take two additional courses in each area. Additional BIOL courses (if needed) are selected at the 300 or 400-level; additional COSC courses (if needed) are selected from the following: COSC 315 , COSC 325 , COSC 420 , COSC 460 , and COSC 470 .
