Question by M: What are the prospects of getting a degree in bioinformatics?
Currently I’m an environmental science (remote sensing GIS) major, but i’m worried that I won’t have enough room to excel after college. As I considered biology as a choice I immediately began to understand the concept of bioinformatics among other biology areas of study.
I would probably get a molecular biology degree, and learn broaden my computer programming skills on my own.
What else is a good choice of a major change, if any at all is necessary?

Best answer:
Try to get into data analysis or image analysis.
Learn Python and other scripting languages, to be able to addon to analysis programs.

Mol Biol is more of a tool based discipline, if you can merge cell biol with analysis, that would be good.
you need to have a high level of statistics, of computational biology, of Matlab.
