The Division of Biostatistics trains students to develop and apply
statistical principles and methods to problems in health sciences,
medicine, and biology. Biostatistics is one of the skills necessary
for the development and practice of public health – the methods
of this discipline are appropriate for quantifying the possible
effects of risk factors and health interventions on individuals
and groups. A graduate of the Biostatistics M.P.H. program is able
to specify and produce valid study designs, perform database management
and produce working tables and statistical summaries, analyze data
in terms of stated hypotheses, generate new hypotheses, and properly
interpret study results.
