Presentation
The Bioinformatics Master's program currently consists of a single track of the same name. It allows students from different bachelor's degree programs to acquire skills that complement their training during the first semester of M1 through teaching units (UE) tailored to their backgrounds. Then, starting in the second semester of M1, they can train in bioinformatics through core teaching units. Two groupsof optionalteaching units in S2 and S3 allow students to give their training a focus on computer science or biology/health.
For more information, return to the section containing general information or scroll down to the section on the two years of M1 and M2 training.
