Fight illness with a healthy dose of data
Good health care decisions depend on good data. But there's a crucial shortage of people with the right skills to make sense of statistical information. Step into that gap with a Biostatistics degree from Waterloo – the only one of its kind in Canada.
In this program, you'll take the same core courses as Statistics students, but with the addition of specialized upper-year courses designed specifically for Biostatistics students. You'll also get the chance to get paid work experience through co-op.
Learn how to design clinical experiments, analyze health data, and interpret results. You'll graduate ready to help create advances in diagnostics, medical technology, and treatments.
