Genetics & Biotechnology degree vs. Bioinformatics? - Leahloughran - 05-20-2011
Hello everyone, I am currently a senior in high school researching careers in biotechnology. I am planning to attend BYU. It offers an undergraduate program in "Genetics & Biotechnology: Business track" or "Bioinformatics". I was hoping to get some perspectives on which degree is more practical, and what kind of person these degrees would suit.
I am debating between these two degrees as I am interested in both the business/industry and computer science aspects of biotechnology. Thanks for your help.
