Program Disclaimer:
Within the next academic year, the Division of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics will merge into the newly named Department of Biostatistics, Health Informatics, and Data Sciences (BHIDS) within the College of Medicine.  This will create a better platform for faculty and students in the Data Sciences to further their research and research opportunities. 

The Master of Science and Doctoral programs in Environmental Health-Biostatistics will also merge into BHIDS and undergo a name change to represent the program's new home better.  Future admitted students will be eligible to obtain their degree with the new name if they choose.
