申请者需要注意,如果你是对quantitative and analytical sciences感兴趣的话,就直接申请这个Program;如果是对joint experimental and computational emphasis感兴趣并且 have prior experience in the biological sciences,则应该通过申请医学院的Program in Biomedical Sciences (PIBS) http://www.med.umich.edu/pibs/ 来申请其中的Bioinformatics Program。这样的设置和UPenn的很类似。个人觉得申请PIBS的录取几率比直接申请 Bioinformatics更大一些。1 n* }' w- |, X% x0 p D; I

1.录取要求:Applicants are expected to have a background in either the biological, physical and computational sciences, although some knowledge of more than one area is desirable. Requirements for admission are: (1) one year of general biology or the equivalent; (2) two years of chemistry, including one year of general chemistry and one year of introductory organic chemistry with laboratory; (3) one year of calculus; (4) one year of physics; (5) at least eight semester hours in cognate sciences related to the program; a satisfactory score on the Graduate Record Examination for the verbal, quantitative and analytical sections; and (7) a minimum Grade Point Average of 3.0 out of 4.0. Coursework in genetics, cell biology and computer science is advantageous. Otherwise superior students, deficient in one or more of the above requirements, may be admitted at the discretion of the GST admissions committee. Deficiencies in given areas will routinely be made up as a part of the Genome Science and Technology (GST) program. & O* ]% C7 m$ R. {* j注:2004年该Program要求GRE是必须在2年内考的才有效,申请2006年的同学最好先确认一下是否还有这样的规定。 2 b c+ t$ u l' \: |7 z) G3 A2. 资助:1年18000美元。 # G( ~+ n3 C& |. ]. o6 v5 F3. 4个大的研究方向: 1 `7 d( @3 c* uGenetics/Genomics http://gst.ornl.gov/genetics.html3 A% w1 X) v!
