In a world where medical and biological science are unfolding in real time, persons with training in bioinformatics are necessary. Bioinformatics is the use of computer technology to analyze and enhance understanding of complex biological and biomedical data. The bioinformatics graudate certificate will prepare you to employ computational and mathematical models for biological data analysis, decision-making and visualization.

You will not only succeed, but become a leader in medical and biological science to solve the challenges of the future. Available to students across many graduate programs at USD, programs of greater interest are biology, biomedical engineering and computer science. Students in health-related programs would also benefit from this program as there is a strong need for biological data analysts to interpret data, make decisions and visualize output.

Think critically across disciplines, solve practical problems and use of computer technology to analyze and enhance understanding of complex biological and biomedical data.
