MS in Environmental Health: Biostatistics

Housed in UC’s department of Environmental Health with collaborations throughout the College of Medicine and Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, the Division of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics offers exciting training and research opportunities in biomedical data sciences. Training programs in the division combine rigorous statistical and computational education rooted in the probability theory and computer science with the exposure to a broad range of biomedical research applications.Biostatistics is a data science field concerned with application of statistical reasoning in the biomedical and public health research. Biostatisticians develop statistical methodologies that are tailored to address specific biomedical data analysis problems. Biostatisticians are also members of interdisciplinary biomedical research teams whose role is to ensure optimal use of data to answer specific biomedical research questions.

For our graduate programs, we welcome applications from students who hold a baccalaureate degree (or higher) from a college or university regarded as standard by a regional or general accrediting agency, and have at least a B average in undergraduate course work (or otherwise give evidence of promise that is judged satisfactory by the admitting program and the Graduate School).Standardized Tests of
