Bioinformatics & Biostatistics Master's in Italy

Universities in Italy are very affordable compared to their counterparts in Western Europe, and the quality of education is undeniable. Italy has always been and remains a cradle of culture and education. In fact, the University of Bologna is the oldest university in Europe, having been opened in 1088. Fashion and Architecture are the stand-out areas where Italian universities are second to none, but there are other English-taught degrees to choose from. In your spare time, you can enjoy the lovely Mediterranean climate, the sea breeze, and tasty food while exploring unique historic sites, such as the Colosseum or the Pantheon in Rome.

Bioinformatics degrees combine advanced knowledge of Biology with software programming, machine learning, data mining and interpretation. Bioinformatics scientists gather biological data and turn it into digestible, comprehensive information that is used for research. You'll study coding languages as well as genetics and genomics that will help develop treatments and prevention methods for genetic diseases. Bioinformatics graduates start interdisciplinary careers in medical research, pharmaceutical companies, and software development.
