Prepare for a Career at the Forefront of Public Health

Some of us are called to ask the big questions in life. Biostatisticians ask these questions and find the life-changing answers through scientific research and in-depth statistical analysis.

How it Works

Our Master of Science (MS) program, which is jointly administered by the Department of Biostatistics of the School of Public Health and the Department of Mathematics & Statistics of the Graduate School of Arts & Sciences, will provide you with comprehensive training in statistical theory and application to position you well for future doctoral studies or starting your career as a practicing biostatistician, all while beginning to build your professional network in Boston. In this comprehensive program, you will:

  • Gain advanced knowledge in probability, statistical inference, and the theory of linear models.
  • Learn to design and conduct experimental and epidemiological studies.
  • Build skills in statistical computation, data analysis, and advanced statistical modeling techniques.
  • Be an active part of the department of biostatistics community, with frequent opportunities to participate in research projects, departmental seminars, and interact with a vibrant student community.
