Student Handbook

The BICB graduate program is an all-University, interdisciplinary graduate program. The administrative home is at the University of Minnesota Rochester. Faculty come from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, the University of Minnesota Rochester, the Hormel Institute, Mayo Clinic, and IBM. A Director of Graduate Studies (DGS) and an Associate Director of Graduate Studies (A-DGS) are the liaison with departments and partnering institutions.

Graduate students are admitted to the University of Minnesota after review of applications by the faculty of the program for which the student applied. The Biomedical Informatics and Computational Biology (BICB) graduate program is one of many graduate programs offered by the University of Minnesota. A list of all majors and degrees offered by the University of Minnesota, the faculty members, requirements, and courses can be found in the Graduate School Catalog.

General information about graduate programs at the University of Minnesota can be found at the web page of the Graduate School. The Graduate School has also issued a Graduate Student Handbook with useful information about policies and procedures that are relevant to all University of Minnesota graduate students.
