Health Outcomes Research

Summary

Saint Louis University’s Doctor of Philosophy in Health Outcomes Research prepares researchers with expertise in health outcomes research, health services research and health data science, equipping them to meet the evolving demands of the health care industry. SLU graduates gain the skills to lead data-driven improvements in health care quality, access, and efficiency.

Health outcomes research is a rapidly growing, interdisciplinary field that evaluates the effectiveness, value and impact of health care treatments, interventions and policies. This research generates evidence to improve patient care and inform health care decision-making by analyzing clinical, functional, quality-of-life and economic outcomes. 

The Ph.D. in health outcomes research program at Saint Louis University is designed to develop highly skilled researchers equipped to address complex challenges in health care. With a focus on evidence-based decision-making, data-driven health care improvements, and patient-centered research, the program prepares graduates for careers in academia, industry, government and health care organizations.

Students build a strong foundation in:

• Research Methodology: Designing and conducting rigorous studies to evaluate health care interventions, treatments, and policies.
• Data Management: Organizing, cleaning, and maintaining complex health care datasets to ensure accuracy and usability.
• Statistical Analysis: Applying advanced statistical techniques to derive meaningful insights from health care data.
• Big Data: Leveraging machine learning, predictive modeling, and big data analytics to inform health care decision-making.
• Scientific Writing and Presentation: Effectively communicating research findings through peer-reviewed publications, conference presentations, and policy briefs.

In addition to structured coursework, students engage in collaborative, hands-on research alongside expert faculty, clinicians, and peers. Under the guidance of dedicated mentors, they contribute to high-impact studies that advance health care quality, access, and efficiency. By integrating health outcomes research, health services research, and data science, SLU’s program ensures graduates are prepared to lead transformative research in the evolving health care landscape.
