Learn what our students have to say about Bioinformatics, the program, Baylor, and "how" they plan on using a Baylor degree with a major in Bioinformatics.


Rachel Adams

"When I discovered the intersection of computer science, chemistry, the life sciences, statistics, and informatics through the bioinformatics major at Baylor, it seemed to be a fit for my academic interests. The knowledgeable and congenial faculty and excellent facilities were strong selling points as I made my decision to attend Baylor."


Divya Mistry

"I was in search for a "perfect" major. A major that would focus on a very specific area of science, yet keep my doors open for other scientific fields if I chose to change my goals at a later date. I used to be an applied mathematics major due to my desire to apply quantifiable measures to things that seemed indiscreet. During my second year into college I realized that some of the most interesting applications of mathematics are in computational theory."


Whitney Smith

I selected the Bioinformatics program based upon the course selections that are offered. I was offered some scholarships from other universities, but visiting Baylor really made an impact on me. The campus atmosphere was warm and inviting. I also thought that the important emphasis placed upon learning was a great fit for me.
