The graduate minor in Biological Data Sciences will familiarize MS and PhD graduate students in the life sciences with research concepts and methodologies in quantitative sciences, and those in the quantitative sciences with research concepts and methodologies in life sciences. The disciplinary learning goals of the minor are by nature foundational. Thus, for example, students with advanced expertise in life sciences would receive foundational training in computer science, statistics and/or mathematics. Students with advanced expertise in computer science would receive foundational training in life science, statistics and, if needed, mathematics. A capstone collaborative problem-solving course will be required by all students. Students may complete all the course work in a single year (encouraged), or may choose spread the courses out over several years.
