Thomas Yang Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Hey pals, I have applied for 2010 Fall biostatistics Ph.D. Before they make their decision, do you know how my applied schools will be ranked? So I can have a better choice later. (I rank it by my opinion) UNC, WashU, UBoston, Upitts, UTHSC-H, Vanderbilt,UMDNJ Uiowa, Indiana University at Indianapolis, Tulane, UArizona Many of them belong to SPH, however I feel insufficient to reference SPH rank from US.News. Could some expert give any advice? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about you? Maybe we have chance to be in one classroom in future, who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kman3201 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 UNC is pretty much the highest ranked school you listed for biostats. The thing with Boston U is that I know a professor that got a phd in Economics from Boston U (he did time series), and he said that Boston U's biostat program isnt that strong. He states that Boston's math/stat department isnt very strong, hence why he states what he says. Besides that, I have heard good things about Pitt and WashU in terms of biostat. Oh, and South Park rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
