Bioinformatics - Bachelors's degree (English only)

Bioinformatics is the science of interpreting, visualizing, and simulating biological data by applying methodological approaches in Computer Sciences and Mathematics to gain an understanding of an organism’s molecular biology.

Expertise in Bioinformatics opens the door to opportunities and applications in the following fields:

- In biology, to understand cell function
- In medicine, to develop diagnostic and preventative procedures as well as treatments
- In genetics, to find genetic causes of illnesses and study the evolutionary development of humans
- In pharmaceutics, to develop new drugs

The research-oriented program focuses on current topics and provides students with individual attention and support services. Early on in the program, students develop problem-solving skills, focus on current scientific issues, and are individually integrated into the institute’s academic activities.

General higher education entrance qualifications (such as an Austrian "Matura" diploma)
The admission procedure at JKU Linz for international students (with non-Austrian academic qualification and certification) is depending on the country where the student comes from.
Attention: The first year of the study is offered in Budweis! Therefore, we recommend international students to apply at the University of South-Bohemia. Please consider the additional information at the website of the Institute of Machine Learning.
