Carnegie Mellon School of Computer Science to Offer Computational Biology Major

Colleges and Universities A-Z Carnegie Mellon University
1

Starting for students applying to Carnegie Mellon in fall 2016, all undergraduates admitted to the School of Computer Science will choose one of two majors: computer science and the new computational biology major.

There is a press release about the program at http://www.cbd.cmu.edu/1037/, and the program homepage is http://www.cbd.cmu.edu/education/bs-in-computational-biology/.

I am the Program Director and would be happy to answer any questions that you might have.

@phillipcompeau My Daughter has applied to SCS (Regular Decision). She has mentioned Computational Biology in her essay. There is no explicit choice for Computational Biology as major in Common Application.
