Since the winter term 2000/2001 the Ludwig-Maximilians-University and the Technical University Munich jointly offer an international and interdisciplinary bioinformatics program as “Bachelor” and “Master of Science” course. The studies target likewise the education in biology and chemistry as well as in informatics. The following faculties and institutes participate in the bioinformatics curriculum:
- Faculty of informatics TUM
- Institute of informatics LMU
- Faculty for biology LMU
- Faculty for chemistry and pharmacy LMU
- Gene Center LMU
- TUM School of Life Sciences Weihenstephan
- Institute of mathematics LMU
- Institute of statistics LMU
- Center of mathematics TUM
- Helmholtz-Center (especially the Institute of Bioinformatics and Systems Biology and the Institute of Computational Biology)
- Max-Planck institute of biochemistry
