Bioinformatics (Hons) Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University

Overview

Throughout the Bioinformatics (Hons) programme at Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University you will graduate with the knowledge and skills to tackle real-world life science problems from an informatics and computational perspective.

The Bioinformatics programme at Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University offers three study pathways, allowing you to tailor programme to your strengths and interests. After Year Two, you have three options:

• Continue to study bioinformatics at XJTLU (with computational content emphasised)

• Continue to study more traditional molecular bioscience modules at XJTLU (with lab-based courses and biological content emphasised).

• Study traditional molecular bioscience modules at the University of Liverpool in the United Kingdom (with lab-based courses and biological content emphasised).

Career opportunities:

Graduates from this programme are well prepared for positions such as bioinformatician, biostatistician, computational biologist, genetic counsellor and clinical bioinformatician, as well as other types of biological and biomedical scientist roles. 

Graduates can also go on to further study in related fields, such as clinical informatics, computational biology, biostatistics, molecular sciences and drug design.
