Message for Bioinformatics students

In the academic year 2000/2001 Tel Aviv University has opened a special undergraduate program in Bioinformatics. The graduates will receive a double major degree in "Computer Science and Life Sciences with specialization in Bioinformatics". The enrollment is via the student secretariats of the Exact Sciences and Life Sciences faculties. In the academic year 2006-2007 a Masters graduate program in Bioinformatics has been opened.
