The Department of Biological Sciences is the campus center for life sciences innovative learning activity and leading-edge research at the University at Buffalo. Housed within the Department of Biological Sciences, the Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (BCB) program is an interdisciplinary program that provides students with training life science, mathematics and computing that are needed to the elucidate the molecular entities that govern biological organization at all levels, from molecules to ecosystems. Students qualify for the Bachelor of Science in degree BCB by successfully completing courses in mathematics, computer science, chemistry and biology, followed by a research project guided by a UB faculty member. In addition to completing foundational courses, students have the option to specialize in one of the three program sub-areas, biology, computer science or mathematics.

Learning Outcomes

Students will:

• Develop computational skills relevant to solving problems in bioinformatics
• Develop relevant skills in math, statistics and biology that enable success in the field of bioinformatics
• Develop analytical skills that will allow them to identify important problems in bioinformatics and to identify solutions
• Gain research skills that allow them to apply their academic training to real-world problems
• Develop written and oral communication skills that are crucial to articulating research goals and reporting research results

Career Outlook

Holders of the Bachelor’s degree in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology can choose either to enter the workforce or go on for additional graduate level training. Graduates choosing to pursue employment will find opportunities at biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, in the health care industry or in academic/research institutions. Starting salaries range from $40-65,000. Graduates of the BSBC program have obtained employment at such places as Los Alamos National laboratory, for private consulting firms and in research laboratories around the country. Graduates choosing to pursue additional training have completed advanced degrees at such places as University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill and Boston University.
