deptbios Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 Could you advise or comment me any evaluation and information in below universities? Those all are Biostatistics Ph.D. Indiana University - Purdue University (IUPUI)/ NYU/ Virginia Commonwealth University(VCU)/ University of Illinois-Chicago/ University of Florida Let's talk about that. Thank you very much.
StatsG0d Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 I'd say the only ones that are really worth considering are UF and UIC. UIC has a legitimate ranking, so I'd choose there out of the above schools. Plus it's in Chicago which is great.

UF has a solid stat department, but the biostats section (department?) is fairly new and I'm not entirely sure how it is structured. VCU and UIC have established programs that I know have graduated students - not the highest in rank, but they are good enough to make the rankings, so probably decent programs.

Yeah I'll admit I know next to nothing about VCU. UF's program is housed in their public health school, but there is either very little or no interaction between the stats and biostats departments. Still, I think there are some reasonably strong faculty members in UF's biostats department. And at least the option exists to take classes at a strong stats department and maybe get co-advised.
