Biostatistics

The Discipline of Public Health in collaboration with the Discipline of Statistics at the University of Adelaide offers high quality postgraduate coursework awards in Biostatistics through the Biostatistics Collaboration of Australia . The BCA is a partnership of leading Australian Universities offering professional training in biostatistics through (largely) distance mode programs. These awards would suit students wishing a career in biostatistics or those wanting to extend the training they received as part of a more general Public Health award.

The organisation of the BCA program delivery is unique in the world. A student enrols for the award - Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma, or Masters - at their "home" university, for example, the University of Adelaide. The BCA designates one university from within the Collaboration to deliver a particular course by distance to students around Australia, regardless of the university of enrolment. The University of Adelaide, for example, teaches the course "Design of Experiments and Randomised Clinical Trials" by distance to all students enrolled in the program at any partner university.

The BCA programs are supported by the collaborating universities, the Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing, state departments of health, and the pharmaceutical industry.

For further information please visit the BCA web site at http://www.bca.edu.au or contact Professor Philip Ryan, the Program Coordinator for the BCA in South Australia.

Applications for Master of Biostatistics, Graduate Diploma in Biostatistics, Graduate Certificate in Biostatistics need to be submitted through SATAC http://www.satac.edu.au/ by Friday 11th December 2009. You also then need to complete the Additional Information Form 2010 and then send this to the Public Health Postgraduate Administration Officer by Friday 11th December 2009.
