<p>what kind of majors would involve science (preferrably biology) as well as computers? are there any majors that combine these two aspects, or would it be a double major instead? also, what colleges would be strong in both of these subjects and/or have a combined major in these subjects?</p>
<p>bioinformatics</p>
<p>exactly, bioinformatics. Or some put it computational biology. It's fairly new program, so it might be hard to know about this major. Try googling. I'm also interested in this major too.</p>
<p>Also bioengineering sounds like one too, but not so sure.</p>
<p>UCSD has a bioinformatics program so you might want to check out the info they have on it.</p>

<p>Carnegie Mellon also has a computational biology program, and I believe that Rice does quite a bit of research in the area and may offer upper level classes.</p>
