At Carleton, the Computational Biology program combines studies in biology and computer science. Modern biology is being greatly enriched by an infusion of ideas from a variety of computational fields including computer science, information science, mathematics and operations research. The goal of the Computational Biology program is to train scientists in a rigorous and balanced program that crosses traditional disciplinary lines, producing graduates who are therefore equipped with the appropriate quantitative tools to successfully pursue careers in areas requiring ecological, evolutionary and population genetics modelling.

Computational Biology is offered as an Honours program with a co-op option.
