Professional Cert in Bioinformatics

Professional Certificate in Bioinformatics

The Professional Certificate in Bioinformatics D058 is a two-week programme which takes place in person only at the UCD School of Veterinary Medicine.  The programme coordinator is Professor Mark Crowe.  The programme will run again in Summer 2025.

Applicants must commit to attend the full two weeks and must commit to taking the exam on the last day of the course.

You will need to bring your own laptop (no Chromebook).

Important: Five ECTS (for UCD research students) or the professional certificate (for non UCD research students) will only be given upon successful completion of the exam (ie credits/prof cert will not be given just for attendance). This is a normal module/programme and all results will go through an exam board. Exam grades will be released "unofficially" to students after the course ends, but will only be confirmed once they go through the Graduate Taught exam board in September and are officially published to students by the University.

Applicants who only want to audit the course will only be considered if there aren't enough applicants who want to take the course for credit.
