Biology is at its heart a data science, and at Carnegie Mellon University we’re training a new generation of computer scientists to tackle its big, unsolved problems. Our undergraduate program — unique to CMU — explores frontier problems in modern biology and medicine while providing the unparalleled computational education and quantitative rigor of the world-leading School of Computer Science.

Explore the cutting edge of modern biology research through both computation and hands-on lab research inour summer Pre-College Program in Computational Biology. The program, unique to Carnegie Mellon University,allows you to conduct real research and gain valuable skills. Programming knowledge is a plus, but not required.If you love biology and math, we would love for you to apply.
