Here’s a link to the CAAM department: [Department of Computational and Applied Mathematics](http://www.caam.rice.edu/)

I actually know several bioEs who switched to caam or are currently doubling, and they really enjoy it. It’s very easy to tailor the resources of the department to your interests, and if you’re into biology I know several profs who apply their math/computer stuff to neuroscience. One of my good friends is doing research right now on how neural nets establish themselves and grow.

Sorry I don’t know anything more specific.
