It is the first interuniversity bachelor’s degree in Bioinformatics taught in Spain, and it is offered jointly by the four most prestigious Catalan public universities: UPC, UB, UAB and UPF.
The degree in Bioinformatics offers comprehensive and solid training at the crossroads of computing, biomedical sciences and physics and chemistry. The student is provided with mathematical skills, biological knowledge, statistics and machine learning abilities with an interdisciplinary focus, with particular emphasis on biomedical applications. Elective subjects provide complementary knowledge in areas such as medical and pharmaceutical research, molecular biology, data science and genomics.
The aim of this degree is to provide students with a global view of the life sciences, with challenges that rarely fall within a single discipline and the necessary tools to work with them. This degree is the result of the efforts of the four participating universities to promote transversal and interdisciplinary studies between biomedicine, technology and computing.
