Huge amounts of data are generated by new and powerful techniques for determining and manipulating the structures of biological molecules. Bioinformatics makes use of mathematical and computer science techniques to process this wealth of data into usable information that shapes further scientific advances.

The Stevens bioinformatics concentration is built on the foundations of chemical biology. After the first two years in the chemical biology program, the bioinformatics student begins replacing certain electives with mathematics and computer science courses, provided that CS 115 is taken in the freshman year. The Stevens bioinformatics concentration is equipping students to contribute to building the software and analytical infrastructure of the field rather than producing users of commercial software packages.
