Fall 2020 Information

We are very excited that you will be joining our program in Fall 2020. Like universities worldwide, we are in the process of evaluating a variety of options for instructional delivery; we will prioritize the health of our community in determining how we will provide instruction in the fall. 

We are looking forward to being face-to-face as soon as it is possible. For students who are unable to join us for face-to-face classes for any reason and at any point during the semester, however, we will be making instructional materials available online as of the first day of classes for those with the technological means to access them.

The Department of Biostatistics, Bioinformatics, and Biomathematics (DBBB) was established in 2005 within the Georgetown University Medical Center (GUMC). As an academic graduate department, we offer a PhD, Master’s and Certificate programs in Biostatistics. With over 20 faculty members, the DBBB actively collaborates and provides consulting for GUMC, Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center (LCCC) and university research investigators on clinical, basic science, and population science research projects. Additionally, faculty conduct independent methodological research contributing to both Biostatistics and Bioinformatics, and the prevention and treatment of diseases. Our research is funded on a variety of grants from organizations such as the NIH and the Department of Defense.
