Introducing the Computational Biology Minor

Introducing: the Computational Biology Minor (CBIO-min)

• It’s offered through Engineering as a partnership between the Dept. of Computer Science and BioFrontiers Institute

• Open to any undergrad student, but fits well with majors/students with a biological/environmental/medical interest

• There are FOUR courses that contribute to the CBIO-minor planned for Spring 21, so you could make good progress quickly with proper planning!

• Here’s the WEBPAGEhttps://www.colorado.edu/biofrontiers/cbiominor  (with a link to an interest form) AND the EMAIL ADDRESS (cbiominor@colorado.edu)

• An advisor will reach out and share other resources, and set up an individual meeting after you submit the interest form from the webpage

What will I learn in the minor?

• Computational biology concepts and experimental techniques
• Representing and understanding biological data and patterns
• Biologically relevant skills in applied math, data science & statistics, and computing
• Modeling and predicting biological processes and dynamics
• Biological phenomena under uncertainty with probabilistic and statistical analyses.
