The Graduate Group established the Designated
Emphasis (DE) in Computational and Genomic Biology to provide specialized
multi-disciplinary training and research opportunities in the different
facets of computational biology and genomics. The DE is a specialization
offered by existing PhD programs, which we refer to as Associated
Programs. At UC Berkeley, acquiring a DE is like earning a “minor”
with a PhD degree.
How does a graduate
student acquire a Designated Emphasis (DE) in Computational and
Genomic Biology?
