Overview

Illinois Tech, Chicago’s only tech-focused university, combines a firm foundation of a biology bachelor’s degree with the advanced knowledge of a computer science professional master’s degree to develop highly qualified computational biologists. Processing biological data has become increasingly important with the growth of huge datasets, such as DNA data. As we move to the era of personalized genomics for medical purposes, the amount of data to analyze will be staggering. For example, sequencing the genomes of all Americans would generate exabytes of data. Become more attractive to employers with a biology and computer science background, to have a wider range of job prospects in both the biology and computer science fields.
