INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, BHOPAL, MADHYA PRADESH.
The Department of Mathematics,
MANIT Bhopal has already conducted a number of activities
in the area of bioinformatics, before it received funding
from DBT for the BIF centre. MANIT is already running
M.Tech. programme in Bioinformatics since July 2006 and
B.Tech. programme from July 2007. Three batches of M.Tech.
Bioinformatics have passed out and the students are well
placed. MANIT has already been organizing short term training
programmes in bioinformatics since 2004.
Also a special

2009 under Technical committee 5 of International Federation
of Information Processing (IFIP) which has been upgraded
to Work Group on Bioinformatics since April 2010. Further
special Interest Group on Bioinformatics has been launched
under Computer Society of India since April 2010 and all
its activities are coordinated by this centre.
