What is Biostatistics?

There is no doubt that Statistics is part of our lives and statistical analysis is the most important tool in many fields. Biostatistics is an innovative science that involves the application of statistical techniques to scientific research in health-related fields including rehabilitation sciences and it assumes a central role in medical research.

Aims

The Department teaches a variety of courses and covers statistical research related to Rehabilitation (e.g. Audiology, Ergonomics, Genetics, Orthotics and Prosthetics, Physiotherapy, Social Welfare, Speech Therapy, Clinical Psychology, and Occupational Therapy). Our Department offers a degree program at the master's level. The Master of Science program in Biostatistics is based on a curriculum proposed by the Ministry of Health and Medical Education.

 

Our vision is to prepare the highest quality Biostatistics students in the world. Our mission is to equip students with the latest world knowledge of biostatistics and the ability to perform innovative research. Toward achieving the aforementioned vision and mission, our academic staff works incredibly hard to provide excellent research and dynamic education. With this aim in mind, we work in collaboration with other universities at national and international levels.

Teaching

Based on a fully integrated curriculum that combines self-directed learning opportunities with high-quality lectures and tutorials, we teach postgraduate students. Our faculty will familiarize the students with the various designs and analyses of studies - survival analysis, survey design, longitudinal analysis, and Bayesian methods; introduce them to the design and analysis of clinical trials, data analysis of other types and interpretation of results, advice on statistical computing packages as well as how to conduct statistical workshops.

Research

Our experienced consultants have good collaborations with researchers in other departments and they provide support to enable other academic members, staff, and graduate and undergraduate students to understand statistical analyses. They help to ensure that exactly the right design, methodology, and analyses are applied to each scientific research. When you are interested in doing some research in medical sciences, our department will provide quick answers to many of your questions.

Services We Offer / Clinics

Our faculty focuses on developing new methods to prepare individuals for consultant positions in Rehabilitation research. The curriculum presented in this program is useful in helping them to interpret or carry out research in the future. They will be also able to provide statistical advice as a member of a research team.

In addition to the Biostatistics MSc Program, our courses in biostatistics are also designed for students in Non-biostatistics at the USWR. They are required to take at least one module in biostatistics in the first year of their program. Students will develop a clear understanding of statistical methods and their applications in this module.

Our faculty and administrative staff are the cornerstone of our departmental operations. They provide support for students and the program.
