Biostatistics Student Organization

Biostatistics Student Organization (BSO)

The Biostatistics student organization (BSO) aims to facilitate student-to-student and student-to-faculty communication in the department and advocate for student needs. Elections for committee members and chairs for the upcoming year are typically held during April/May.

This year, the organization meets at 4:00PM on the last Wednesday of each month to discuss student concerns, activities, and other initiatives. Committees and chairs give updates for outstanding topics, and students are encouraged to raise any concerns or ideas that may be of student interest.
