The Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (BBC) course aims to train students from various backgrounds (biologists, computer scientists, physicists, mathematicians) and attracted by multidisciplinarity to quantitative approaches for biology and medicine of the 21st century.

This course is an evolution of the Biology, Computer Science and Mathematics (BIM) course, the M1 of which will begin in September 2022.

The acceleration of biotechnologies producing high-throughput omics data, the enrichment of large biomolecular databases, and the development of imaging techniques, constantly reveal the great complexity of biological processes. 

The Bioinformatics and Computational Biology course aims to train students in quantitative approaches in bioinformatics, big data analysis, physics and mathematical modeling for the interpretation and understanding of biological processes.

The training offers students the opportunity to acquire the fundamental knowledge and skills in bioinformatics and/or computational biology allowing them to become actors in the contemporary fields of research inbiology. The two long-term internships provide significant experience in a professional research environment.

The course is divided into two main paths, bioinformatics or computational biology, the contents of which allow students from various backgrounds to develop their own skills.

The combination of these paths, the set of options and long internships allows each student to personalize their exit profile around the common interdisciplinary base, both from the point of view of biological themes (genetics, ecology, neurosciences, medicine, etc.) than that of modeling and data analysis methods.

Master of Science

It was with a view to preparing young generations for the professions of the future and providing solutions for the challenges we face that in 2018 Université Côte d’Azur developed a series of international MSc programs, of which there are now 11.

These programs of excellence supported by IDEX UCAJEDI are fully taught in English and involve the participation of leading academics and practitioners. They are built around regional objectives and prestigious international partnerships.

These State-accredited MSc degree courses welcome students from around the world (more than 110 countries), a multiculturalism that is one of our strengths

Phd

Université Côte d’Azur offers the ideal environment to complete a doctoral thesis. Boasting 80 laboratories and almost 800 researchers, it hosts 1,300 PhD students at all its sites in Nice and Sophia-Antipolis. Each year, 250 doctoral theses are defended in some fifty subject specialties.

Université Côte d'Azur provides its PhD students efficient working conditions to both train in, and learn from, top-level research.

Studying for a PhD at Université Côte d'Azur helps nurture disciplinary expertise through superior teaching provided by research professors together with numerous international symposiums and seminars organized in the laboratories. It also builds cross-cutting skills in teaching, research, communication, work efficiency and management, while innovative programs support young researchers to start their entrepreneurial ventures.
