CS Bioinformatics Kick-OffThe CS Bioinformatics Kick-Off will take place on Monday September 4th 2017 from 13.30 - 15.30 in Room 174 of the Snellius Building, Niels Bohrweg 1 in Leiden.
DescriptionThe main focus of the Bioinformatics specialisation is on Data Analysis and Modeling, which represents the unique expertise of the different research groups of Leiden University and the Delft University of Technology participating in this research oriented specialisation. This expertise is used to address issues like data capturing, data warehousing, data analysis and data mining that have become major challenges in the field of Bioinformatics due to the tremendous complexity and abundance of quantitative data in biology and medicine. On the other hand, bioinformatics heavily contributes to the identification of new fundamental computer science principles and the development of new informatics tools.
Bioinformatics offers a unique new synthetic approach for formulating hypotheses and solving problems in (molecular-) biology versus the classical reductionistic approach. Students from any university in The
Netherlands with a BSc degree in Computer Science or
with a BSc major in Computer Science will be
admitted to the programme. ProgrammeThe programme is 120 EC in extent. The programme is outlined below.
Every
student of the Bioinformatics specialisation has to
complete the core programme. Specialisation Courses (24 EC)A choice can be made out of different specialisation courses. The specialisation courses have level 500, and range from 3 - 6 EC. The total of 24 EC is indicative and depends on the extent of the student’s support programme and research assignment. The selection of the specialisation courses takes place in coordination with the Bioinformatics specialisation study adviser. Support Programme (max 12 EC)For each student a support programme will be defined by the Bioinformatics specialisation study adviser. The support programme consists of tutors or courses in Life Science, Computer Science, Mathematics, or of optional courses for deficiency programmes. The support programme will consist of a maximum of 10 EC. Research assignment (15 EC) Master’s

Registration at TU
Delft (updated) You need to register as a (bijvak)-student at TU Delft as you will need access to computers, blackboard, courses and exams. The registration procedure that you have to follow in order to obtain the TU Delft blackboard account is as follows:
Note: this of course assumes that you completed your
registration at Registration at Leiden University If you want to follow courses like Databases and Data Mining at Leiden University, you have to register as a guest-student. To register as a guest-student please follow the procedure described at the following page: http://www.students.leiden.edu/application-admission/other-modes-of-study/other-modes-of-study.html |
