One term of practical experience is required of all students, providing educational opportunities that are different from and supplementary to the more academic aspects of the program. The practicum may be fulfilled during the school year or over the summer. Arrangements are made on an individual basis in consultation with faculty advisors who must approve both the proposed practicum project prior to its initiation, and the report submitted at the conclusion of the practicum experience. Students will be required to make a poster presentation at the department’s Annual Practicum Poster Symposium which is held in early May.
A formal, culminating experience for the MS degree is required for graduation. The capstone consulting seminar is designed to enable students to demonstrate their ability to integrate their academic studies with the role of biostatistical consultant/collaborator, which will comprise the major portion of their future professional practice.
As part of the seminar, students are required to attend several sessions of the Biostatistics Consulting Service (BCS). The Consultation Service offers advice on data analysis and appropriate methods of data presentation for publications, and provides design recommendations for public health and clinical research, including preparation of grant proposals. Biostatistics faculty and research staff members conduct all consultation sessions with students observing, modeling, and participating in the consultations.
In the capstone seminar, students present their experience and the statistical issues that emerged in their consultations, developing statistical report writing and presentation skills essential to their professional practice in biomedical and public health research projects.
The PhD Program in Health Data Science at FMUP offers advanced education focused on a markedly multidisciplinary vision in three areas of specialization: Health Informatics, Intelligent Analysis of Health Data; Health Interventions, Policies, and Services.
The Program is aimed at students with a relevant academic or scientific curriculum, with academic education or professional experience in areas such as Medicine, Health Sciences and Technology, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, Psychology, Economics, or Management, among others.
With 240 ECTS, the objectives of the cycle of studies include the definition, development, interpretation, and synthesis of health research results, the application of methods for statistical analysis, the integration of health data results into daily practice, and the transposition of the knowledge obtained into health decision making, considering ethical, legal and health data quality issues.

The Statistics faculty within the department engage in a broad range of research topics. Our expertise spans classical statistical problems, such as hypothesis testing, high-dimensional data analysis, dimension reduction, time-series analysis, and nonparametric statistics, as well as contemporary topics, including network modeling, graph learning, neural networks, computational statistics, and optimization. Additionally, our faculty are actively involved in data-driven research applications across diverse fields, such as large language models, image data analysis, financial forecasting, health sciences, biology, and animal science.
The program also offers students the flexibility to pursue research in collaboration with our affiliated faculty or any other University of Delaware faculty whose work is closely aligned with statistics and data science. This interdisciplinary approach provides a unique opportunity for students to tailor their research experience to their academic and professional interests.
