M.Tech. (Bioinformatics) is a two years post graduate program wherein student get specialization in molecular biology through computer science and information technology. It offers education in computation methods, databases and software tools for the storage, retrieval, analysis, visualization and integration of biological information such as genes, proteins and their structures, functions, functions, interactions and pathways.
Some of the most well-known national level entrance tests for admission to M.Tech. Some of the Bioinformatics entrance exams are GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering): Biotechnology / Life science, CSIR NET (National Eligibility Test): Life science, and other entrances conducted by various institutes such as JNU CEE M.Tech., Pondicherry University Common Entrance Test for Undergraduate and Postgraduate Courses (PUEE) and Banaras Hindu University PET or Post Graduate Entrance Test.
