The global leaders who make innovation happen should have basic knowledge of associated field (especially physics, mathematics and information science) enough to find new programs and solve them, in addition to high degree of professionalism. “Minor Course of Science and Technology for Global Leaders” have a coursework to enhance basic knowledge (Innovation Creation Fundamental Courses).
“Essential Bioinformatics for Global Leaders Ⅰ” will be offered. This is a lecture for students who are in “Minor Course of Science and Technology for Global Leaders”. But all master’s & doctoral students can take it if you have interest. The lecture will be conducted in English.
Lecture Objective
This set of classes let the students grasp the general idea of bioinformatics, its logical background and its application. The students need not to understand the mathematical detail in the field. The classes include practices. This set of classes is open to graduate students in Ochanomizu University and not a compulsory for the leading program students.
