MSc in Biostatstics

2009 marks the start of a new Masters of Science programme in Biostatistics, a degree taught in conjunction with the Department of Mathematics and Statistics. The goals of this programme are to produce biostatisticians who have a solid underpinning of theoretical statistics, are well-versed in modern biostatistical methods and have the ability to implement their knowledge of statistics effectively in a collaborative research setting. For more information, contact the programme director, Dr Katrina Sharples.
