Bioinformatics and systems biology are young, up-and-coming, and demanding branches of science at the interface between computer science and the life sciences. Bioinformatics and systems biology are both closely connected with recent progress in biotechnology, molecular biology, and medicine.
The master of science program in Bioinformatics and Systems Biology is a two-year interdisciplinary course of study aimed at especially qualified German and international students.
The master’s program is planned as a consecutive course of study for graduates of a bachelor’s program in computer science with the minor field bioinformatics – like that offered at the University of Freiburg. However, the program is also open to external applicants who possess equivalent qualifications in a field of the natural sciences. The goal of the program is to teach students the methodology of bioinformatics and systems biology and strengthen their background knowledge in areas of biology and computer sciences relevant for these fields.

Disclaimer
The versions of statutes with relevance to teaching and learning provided on this page by the Department of Legal Affairs (in particular admission and selection regulations as well as subject and examination regulations) are primarily for information purposes. This means that all amendments subsequently agreed upon by the University Senate have been integrated into the respective text of the original statutes; in the case of the examination regulations for bachelor's and master's degree programmes, this generally relates to extracts of the respective examination regulations (framework examination regulations, subject-specific provisions, and appendices).
The greatest care has been taken in writing these versions. Nevertheless, it cannot be entirely ruled out that errors may have occurred. Consequently, it is solely the officially announced statutes and statute amendments that are legally binding, i.e. as published in the Amtlichen Bekanntmachungen der Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg im Breisgau [de] or, up to the year 2000, in the official gazette of the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts.
