BSc in Systems Biology in Cleveland United States | Case Western Reserve University

Systems biology represents a fast-growing field at the intersection of mathematics, computer science, and life sciences. Contemporary biological research domains like biochemical networks, neural systems, behavioral studies, and ecosystem modeling demand proficiency in sophisticated quantitative and computational techniques. The Systems Biology BS curriculum is designed to equip students with this multidisciplinary quantitative expertise essential for such fields. This skillset diverges from conventional biology undergraduate programs. Accordingly, the Systems Biology BS expands upon the Biology BA/BS core with two additional courses focused on biological systems modeling and analysis, alongside foundational computer science and advanced mathematics coursework. While traditional biology lab courses remain optional electives, undergraduate research (through BIOL 388S and BIOL 390) is highly encouraged though not mandatory.
