[BioEdu] Bioinformatics Curriculum

[David Lapointe]

The May/June issue of IEEE Potentials has a interesting article on developing 
undergraduate programs in bioinformatics.  A major point that the author, 
Jeff Zadeh, of Virginia State University, makes is that an undergraduate 
curricula makes possible the interdisciplinary foundation that bioinformatics 
needs: biology, mathematics, and computer science. Undergraduate study is 
inherently interdiscipline, whereas in graduate school there is more focus on 
research  and discipline specific studies.
