Supportive Courses for Bioinformatics?

Per Christian Henden asks: "I`m aiming for a masters degree in bioinformatics, and I`m uncertain which courses would be good to follow (and my counselor doesn't know, either). There are of course some courses that 'belong' to this degree, and I`ll take those, but I get to choose a number of additional courses. I want to ask people working in bioinformatics 'What (CS) subjects are important or especially useful in bioinformatics?' I`m planning on choosing 'Large Datasets', 'Parallel Programming', 'Image Classification', and 'Subsymbolic AI', because I think those are important, but I`m really not sure what is useful or not in real life bioinformatics." Other Ask Slashdot articles, which have touched on bioinformatics, have dealt with magazines, books and graduate schools.
