As gone12 says, it is important to have knowledge of OO programming (mostly Java) and Linux. I would recommend to download a Cloudera or hortonworks in a virtual machine or vmware and use the example below to get little insight into big data world:

Cloudera: http://www.cloudera.com/content/cloudera/en/downloads.html
Hortonworks: http://hortonworks.com/products/hortonworks-sandbox/#install
Example: http://www.ikzen.com/downloads/ikzen-1.12.14.zip

biology, I am relatively new to big data but I started learning about basic hadoop eco-system and mapreduce last year only. If you are really interested to understand big data than python is good to start with. Here is a link to lectures from Cloudera with python.
