Medical Biometry/Biostatistics

Master of Science (M.Sc.)

About the Program

Biostatistics as a science of modelling and analysis of quantifiable biomedical processes and phenomena opens up a wide range of applications from prevention, treatment of environmental risks, consumer protection, health care, research and development, regulatory review and approval to health care reform. The aim of the course is to enable students to independently carry out scientific work in medical biometry, such as the statistical planning and evaluation of empirical studies and the mathematical modelling of correlations in biology and medicine. The program deepens the basic knowledge of mathematics and statistics from the previous bachelor's program and extends knowledge and skills especially in the field of medical research. It emphasizes interdisciplinarity and practical relevance. An internship is integrated between the 2nd and 3rd semesters, where students can apply their knowledge in institutes, companies, authorities or clinics.
