Description

The department directs four degree programs: the Master of Biostatistics Program, the PhD Program in Biostatistics, the Clinical Research Training Program, and the Master of Management in Clinical Informatics. Faculty members teach courses and supervise student research in the areas of biostatistics, computational biology, statistical genetics, epidemiology, health economics, health services research and computational medicine.

The Master of Biostatistics degree requires 36 credits of graded course work, a practicum experience, and a master’s project for which 6 units of credit are given. Completed in the second year, this master’s project serves to demonstrate the student’s mastery of biostatistics.

The Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics offers a Ph.D. degree in Biostatistics through the Duke University Graduate School. A distinguishing feature of the program is its integration within the world-class biomedical research enterprise at Duke University and the Duke School of Medicine. The goal of the program is to train students to become independent researchers who will advance the field of biostatistics, including statistical genetics and genomics. New methodological development with application in health-related areas is critical to this goal. The program emphasizes development of methodology that incorporates the features of health-related problems, effective collaboration and communication with scientists, and ability to teach biostatistics.

The Department currently has over fifty (50) faculty members who are individually affiliated with various research groups, centers and institutes across the School of Medicine, including the Duke Clinical Research Institute, the Duke Cancer Institute, the Durham VA Medical Center, the Center for HIV/Aids Vaccine Immunology, and the Duke Center for Aging. These affiliations provide a wide range of experiences and opportunities for graduate study.
