The study programme not only gives students the opportunity to acquire in-depth knowledge of methods for processing statistical data, but also enhances their understanding of the causes and development of the most common diseases, as well as epidemiological and clinical research. Graduates from the study programme primarily work as biostatisticians in pharmaceutical companies and clinical research organisations (CRO), with planning data collection in clinical trials and observations, statistically processing the obtained data and analysing the results. Biostatisticians also work at universities, scientific institutes, laboratories and other research foundations that collect data and analyse results in health-related fields.
