Biostatistics and Health Analytics

Summary

The 21st century is the era of "big data." Every day, we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data — so much that 90% of the data in the world today has been created in the last two years alone. It is estimated that 30% of this data comes from the health care industry. Saint Louis University's Master of Science in Biostatistics and Health Analytics prepares students to handle this data while applying analytic techniques to answer important research questions related to health and health care.

 

Students take courses in public health, the theory of biostatistics, methods of biostatistics and computing. Students finish by doing a capstone project under the direction of a faculty member in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics.

Two Concentrations Available

Students interested in learning skills across a broad spectrum of biostatistics and data analytics can choose the traditional biostatistics concentration. Those who want to apply their skills to geospatial data can choose the geospatial health data analytics concentration. Both programs require a core set of material on biostatistics and analytics, and each concentration has its own requirements for completion.
