The curriculum emphasizes probability, statistical inference, experimental and epidemiological study design, computational skills, and advanced statistical modeling. Students gain practical experience through research rotations and internships, and are prepared for roles in biomedical research, pharmaceutical companies, government, and consulting organizations. The degree requires 34 credits, including coursework and a research mentorship, culminating in a final written report. 来源： https://www.bu.edu/sph/admissions/applying/master-of-science-and-doctor-of-philosophy-degrees-in-biostatistics/
