Course Information

Description

BST 203LAB is the required lab section for BST 203. Students must enroll in both BST 203 and BST 203LAB in the same term. Failure to enroll in both sections will result in the student being dropped from the single enrolled section.
BST 202 + 203 must be taken consecutively and students must register for both.
This course is the second part of introductory biostatistics; it continues to explore inference in greater depth. Lectures and laboratory exercises will emphasize applied data analysis, building upon the fundamentals emphasized in BST 202. Topics covered include the comparison of two means, analysis of variance, non-parametric methods, inference on proportions, contingency tables, multiple 2 X 2 tables, correlation, simple regression, multiple regression and logistic regression, analysis of survival data, and sampling theory. The computer is used throughout the course, and the student will gain familiarity with the software packages R and STATA.
