Bioinformatics is considered one of the disciplines whose discoveries are expected to have a lasting mark on modern history. Without bioinformatics, the prospects of modern systems biology, systems medicine, and systems genetic would be unthinkable to achieve. These include: personalised and effective medicine, the development of new and efficacious drugs, and ensuring a high-quality supply of food. At its core, bioinformatics has the development of modern techniques for the analysis of large-scale biological data, which allows us to dissect the organising principles and functions of complex biological systems.
The English-language Master's degree programme in bioinformatics at the University of Potsdam provides the knowledge necessary to address the demands of the analysis of biological systems together with data gathered by various technologies. The programme is principally geared towards students with a Bachelor's degree in life sciences, computer sciences, mathematics, or physics. We assume that a thorough knowledge of the basics of natural sciences or computer sciences provides an advantage in mastering the cross-disciplinary science of bioinformatics.
