Integrative Genomics Graduate Certificate (Online)
An interface between biology and computational sciences
Study in this area is growing and is at the forefront of cutting-edge research.
Students in this graduate certificate program will learn new techniques and applications of current biotechnology databases to DNA and protein analysis. These techniques allow the study of disease at the cellular and molecular levels.
Students who would benefit from this program are in industry and research or teach Biology. For teachers, exposure to this area of science would keep them current in these fields as well as better prepare their students for college or upper-level courses.
