 MPhil.

The M.Phil (Bio informatics) programme aims to prepare the students for understanding biological data at molecular level from both informational and biological perspective and impart conceptual, computational and practical skills to acquire, analyze, process or use the data to address significant problems in the field of Bio informatics, of both pure and applied nature. Known to be the first of its kind in the country, this one-year credit and semester programme is open to students from the streams of engineering, life sciences and computer sciences.

PhD. Vide University order No. Ac.E1.A.2.29772/05 dated 13/01/2006, the Centre for Bioinformatics has been recognized as a centre of research of the University of Kerala. Candidates from Science, Applied Sciences and Engineering & Technology can apply for part-time or full-time research at the center during December and June each year, according to the rules and regulations (Click Here for Regulations) of the University of Kerala in this regard.
