COSC 275 Introduction to Bioinformatics

Bioinformatics is broadly defined as the study of molecular biological information, and this course introduces computational techniques for the analysis of biomolecular sequence, structure, and function. While the course is application-driven, it focuses on the underlying algorithms and information processing techniques, employing approaches from search, optimization, pattern recognition, and so forth. The course is hands-on: programming lab assignments provide the opportunity to implement and study key algorithms. 

Prerequisite

COSC 10. COSC 30 is recommended.
