How to Prepare Yourself
Many students have gaps on either the computational side or the life sciences side of this interdisciplinary field. With the large number of free online courses available on the web, there are now ways to prepare yourself without going back to college and taking undergraduate courses. This is particularly attractive to adult learners who plan to return to a university for an advanced degree. If online courses do not work for you, many community colleges offer courses in a cost-effective way that get you started with courses in computer science or biology. The University of Minnesota Informatics Institute maintains a website with additional information on how to prepare yourself for a career in informatics.
If your undergraduate (or other postsecondary) degree is in the life sciences, you will likely have an excellent background in biology but you may not feel comfortable with taking a graduate level course in computer science. MIT Open Courseware through OCW Scholar offers an “Introduction to Computer Science and Programming” course that is free, self-paced, and is aimed at students with little or no prior experience in programming. Follow this course up with a course on Algorithms. There are a number of universities that offer the course for free: MIT Open Courseware offers “Introduction to Algorithms” (6.006), which has course materials available for free on the website. If you want video lectures with the course, take the course at Coursera, which offers the course from both Princeton and Stanford. If you find programming difficult, you may want to take a course in a programming language (Python, R, Perl, or Java) at a local community college or local university. There are also online programming courses available from Extension Services at universities, such as UC Berkeley Extension.
If your undergraduate degree (or other postsecondary) degree is on the computational side, you will likely have an excellent background in computer science, mathematics, or statistics, but may not feel comfortable taking graduate level courses in biology and biochemistry. MIT Open Courseware makes MIT’s chemistry courses freely available. To prepare yourself for biochemistry, you need some background in organic and general chemistry. To learn the language of modern biology, MIT’s “Introduction to Biology” course is a good start. This course is enhanced with video lectures. To learn more about genomics and computational biology, the “Genomics and Computational Biology” course from MIT is still relevant, although already ten years old. Another course of interest may be the “Genomic Medicine” course from MIT, which was taught in 2004. The three biology courses are all multi-media enhanced, that is, they include video and/or audio lectures. A more recent course in “Molecular Biology and Genetics in Modern Medicine” from MIT covers basic concepts in molecular biology and genetics in a clinical context. This course is not multi-media enhanced. Coursera offers a course on “Introduction to Genetics and Evolution” from Duke University, and a course on “Introduction to Genome Science” from the University of Pennsylvania.
Explore the full range of massive online open courses (MOOCs). They are available through iTunes U, Academic Earth, Coursera, MIT Open Courseware, Udacity, and EdX. New players in this field continue to enter the market. Many of these enhance the courses with Discussion Forums, which work well when students take the courses synchronously, such as on Coursera. Because of the large number of students simultaneously enrolled in these courses (often, in the thousands), questions asked by students get answered very quickly and the dialogue can be followed by others who may have similar questions.
2024 QS世界大学排名正式发布了! 【话题讨论】
6月28日,QS 教育集团正式分布2024 QS世界大学排名。为了及时反映出高等教育发展的最新趋势,有三个新增指标纳入了今年的QS排名的考量中,分别是 可持续性、就业能力以及国际研究网络。该排名涵盖来自104个国家或地区的1500所大学,排名是基于对1750多万篇学术论文以及超过24万名学术教职员工和雇主的专业意见分析而得出。
中国
中国内地共有71所学校上榜,与去年相同。在中国参评的高校中,清华大学、浙江大学、复旦大学、上海交通大学分别位列全球第25位、第44位、第50位、第51位,共有上述5所中国高校进入全球Top100。
美国
麻省理工学院连续十二年排名第一,剑桥大学和牛津大学分列第二和第三位。加州大学伯克利分校首次跻身世界前十,从去年的第27名上升至第10名。
新加坡
新加坡国立大学首次跻身世界前十,从去年的第11名上升至第8名。
英国
英国高校的排名整体变化不大, 剑桥大学和帝国理工大学依旧保持着世界第二和世界第六,而牛津大学超越斯坦福大学排名位于世界第三;伦敦大学学院则从去年的第八名下降至今年的第九名。
本科211&985,在职硕士211,雅思6.5.想申请CSC,选哪国较好?
大家好!本人32岁,211&985南京农业大学食品科学与工程2007年毕业,GPA3.32;毕业后在疾控中心工作,本职实验室质量管理与控制,即将调到食品营养监测科工作(与公共卫生密切相关)。发表过质量管理相关论文2篇,微生物检测论文1篇。但影响因子不高,纯属为评职称用。上班后于2013年取得在职的211宁夏大学化学工程硕士学位。2016年2月取得雅思6.5分成绩,但写作很遗憾只有5.5 。无心再刷雅思成绩。
由于2016年新西兰国家发展奖学金突然停止,导致我的留学计划被打乱,为不浪费雅思成绩只好另谋出路。现想申请通过国家留学基金委的奖学金项目公派出国读硕士(学历回国可承认,本人在职硕士只有学位证无学历),或者自己申请全额奖学金出国留学。专业与公共健康、食品营养为最佳,单位容易通过。
问了一些留学的朋友,有说澳洲30岁以下签证容易,建议我选新西兰;有说新西兰、澳洲已经留学产业化、竞争激烈,可以考虑北欧;还有说美、澳都可申请。。。自我感觉申请排名不太靠前竞争压力小的学校+能够申请到相关专业+尽可能多拿奖学金,再通过CSC出国节约成本比较好,单位也容易通过。
请问各位经验丰富的老师,像我这种条件的,目标国家和学校放到哪边比较适合?
