The GW Master of Public Health (MPH) Biostatistics program aims to equip students with the expertise to effectively utilize statistical techniques in biological, biomedical, and health services research. Graduates of our Biostatistics master's program gain the skills to perform epidemiological studies, conduct evaluation projects, and track community health trends across academic, governmental, private, and public health organizations. Our research contributes to insights about the transmission of infectious diseases like Zika, Ebola, and HIV/AIDS. Alumni collaborate with at-risk populations to enhance patient care and mitigate disease outbreaks.
Furthermore, the MPH in Biostatistics curriculum strengthens students' analytical and innovative thinking abilities. The George Washington University takes pride in training public health advocates dedicated to advancing community well-being and public service. We prioritize these values in our Biostatistics program as they are fundamental for aspiring biostatisticians and health professionals. Additionally, we ensure our Biostatistics graduates can:
Maintain rigorous scientific research standards.
Apply statistical approaches to biomedical and health services fields.
Uphold ethical principles in human subject research.
Clearly convey research results to non-specialist audiences.
Demonstrate cultural sensitivity in all professional activities.
