Bioinformatics courses in Sri Lanka and around the World

Some guidance for the people who like to follow bioinformatics !

Hey guys ! So this time I would like to post some of the degrees in Bioinformatics and a list of universities that offer them. 

If you like to follow a bioinformatics course in Sri Lanka then you have the following options .

1. BSc (Hon's) in Bioinformatics from Faculty of Science, University of Colombo. 
2. Study a Biology BSc program in any university and follow an MSc in Bioinformatics from IBMBB or PGIM, University of Colombo.
3. Study Computer Science & Mathematics from any university and follow a MSc in Bioinformatics from IBMBB or PGIM, University of Colombo.
4. After a Hon's degree, contact professors/lecturers from Universities, would give the path for you to complete a PhD in Bioinformatics.

Following is the link for IBMBB - http://www.ibmbb.lk/
