Bioinformatics can be selected as a specialisation within the Biology and Biochemistry Bachelor's degree programme. Within this specialisation, our department offers the course B.Bio.113: Applied Bioinformatics and the Specialisation (Fachvertiefung) Bioinformatics  (B.Bio.152) in Biology  respectively the Specialisation Bioinformatics (B.Biochem.439) in Biochemistry. 

Applied Bioinformatics (B.Bio.113) (10C, 7SWS): 

Courses and exams
1. Lecture: Introduction to applied bioinformatics (4 SWS)
2. Tutorial: Internet-based Bioinformatics (3 SWS)

Module examination: Written examination (90 minutes)
Requirement for the examination: regular participation in the practical exercises and successful completion of three exercise sheets.

Admission requirements:
For BSc Bio: at least 40 C from the first stage of studies

Language: German

The specialisation and Bachelor's thesis are completed usually in direct succession and last at least 18 weeks (full-time).

The specialisation in the B.Sc. degree programme Biology consists of two modules:

• Advanced internship (6 weeks full-time) with associated literature seminar.
• Scientific project management [B.Bio.190], consisting of the 

              1. Lecture Good Scientific Practice [B.Bio.190.1] (Attention: only in winter semester!) and
              2. the scientific research concept for the Bachelor thesis [B.Bio.190.2] (usually directly before the start of the Bachelor thesis
                  in consultation with your first examiner of the Bachelor thesis).
