The Bioinformatics Graduate Program (BGP) was established as an interdepartmental program in 1998 at the University of Michigan. The graduate program began in 2001 with its first matriculating class, and our talented group of students is growing with every new class admitted each year. We currently have 35 students and over 100 faculty.

The Bioinformatics Graduate Program at the University of Michigan is highly interdisciplinary and involves many different schools and departments across campus. Among these are departments of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering and Chemical Engineering, School of Public Health, School of Information, Center for Study of Complex Systems, Department of Mathematics, Departments of Human Genetics, Microbiology and Immunology, Medicine, Pathology, Biological Chemistry, and Psychiatry. This diverse involvement results in many research collaborations between faculty and students.
