Rafiu Fakunle emailed to tell me that Queen Mary, University of London offers an undergraduate degree in bioinformatics.

Royal Holloway College in the University of London offers an MSc. in Computer Science by Research in which a bioinformatics specialism is available.

University College London (UCL) offers a final year undergraduate course: "Bioinformatics:Genes, Proteins and Computers".

Together with Harrow School of Computer Science, The University of Westminster, a new university in London, offers an MSc. in Bioinformatics as both a full- and part-time course. Again this is aimed primarily at graduates of the biological sciences.

York University's Department of Biology offers Masters courses and PhDs in both computational biology and biomolecular science.

If you know of any other bioinformatics courses in Europe please feel free to mail me about them.

...Remotely (Distance/Correspondence Courses)

Many visitors to the FAQ ask about bioinformatics distance learning. Eventually I will try to gather together all those courses on this list that can be taken remotely---if I ever have the time. Unfortunately I don't at the moment. All I can suggest is that you examine the courses yourself through the links provided in the FAQ. Many can be taken over the Net or offer components that can be studied at a distance. (And, if you do compile such a list for yourself, do please email it to me and I will post it here for the benefit of our users with, as usual, a full credit for your efforts.)

If you are thinking of studying at a UK institution you might want to search through the pre-print of my review of UK bioinformatics education for the word "distance". At the moment I think the courses at Birkbeck, Exeter and Oxford offer either full or part distance learning options.
