Educational Opportunities in Biostatistics, Informatics and Computing

There is tremendous need for skilled quantitative researchers whose expertise crosses traditional disciplines, so there is an equal opportunity for coordinated inter-school and department educational training programs. A key objective of the center is to provide this coordination in order to enhance and strengthen academic programs in biostatistics and bioinformatics. Below is a list of degree programs and selected courses from numerous departments and schools at OHSU.
