Accredited University Courses

Accreditation of a statistics course of study at a University gives many benefits. To the students, it gives them automatic status as a Graduate Statistician when they apply to the Society. To prospective students, it guarantees that the course they are choosing is recognised across Australia. To the academic department, it helps market their courses in an increasing competitive environment. And it provides credibility within the University, an important factor when resources are tight.

The following courses of study are currently accredited by the Society:

(Post)Graduate Diploma of Biostatistics and Master of Biostatistics
Biostatistics Collaboration of Australia (BCA)
(The program of the courses is identical across the universities, the specific titles across the universities may differ according to the history of the establishment of the program)
