Transcript

What entry-level positions in this field might an undergraduate college student consider?

Any software engineering job is really an entry-level position. So, an internship or a software engineering developer one position would probably be a job.

If you want a more hybrid role, there's bioinformatics. This mixes engineering and science more deeply but is focused toward large-scale molecular biology data. That would also be one of the jobs.
