In MS Bioinformatics program, the content of studies depends on your Bachelor's degree. For instance, if you have a Bachelor in computer science, you will study biology and medicine in addition to bioinformatics to complement your previous degree. On the other hand, if you have studied biosciences in your Bachelor's, your Master's will contain more computer science, mathematics and statistics. MS in Bioinformatics is a 2 years (4 semesters: course work should be completed in two Semesters; one year for research/ Course work). The course work includes areas of Biological Sciences, Computer Sciences and Mathematics. In addition to core courses, you can choose from a number of elective courses in bioinformatics, computer sciences and biosciences. Your study advisor will help you to make the choices on the basis of your previous degree and your interests. Your second year studies in the program will consist of the Master's thesis.
