计算生物学和数学生物学是生物学中重要的新领域。遗传学，生态学和进化学的许多领域都依赖于复杂的定量分析。例如，来自人类基因组计划的数据（以及来自其他物种的类似数据）的出现表明，需要计算机，统计和数学方法来存储，检索和分析大量数据集。认识到这些定量技术和技能的重要性日益提高，我们已经在计算生物学和数学生物学方面发展了本科专业。这些浓度旨在使学生为数据驱动的科学世界做好准备。<br> <br>宾夕法尼亚大学为学生提供了广泛的机会，让他们了解生物系统的多样性。我们的课程向学生介绍了许多了解活生物体功能和多样性的方
Computational and Mathematical Biology are important new areas in the biological sciences. Many areas in genetics, ecology, and evolution depend on sophisticated quantitative analyses. For example, the advent of data from the human genome project (and similar data from other species) has shown the need for computer, statistical and mathematical methods to store, retrieve and analyze massive data sets. Recognizing the growing importance of these quantitative techniques and skills, we have developed undergraduate concentrations in both Computational and Mathematical Biology. These Concentrations are designed to prepare students for the world of data-driven science.
