The School of Public Health’s Graduate Biostatistics Computer Lab is a resource available to the school’s current graduate and certificate students, as well as Georgia State students enrolled in public health graduate-level courses.
Graduate Research Assistants (GRAs) oversee the lab and are available during open lab hours to provide limited student assistance and support for the Fundamentals of Biostatistics I (PH7017) and Statistical Computing (PH7525) courses.
Students may visit the Computer Lab on the 6th floor of the Urban Life building or join the Virtual Lab at any time during open lab hours when a Graduate Research Assistant (GRA) is available.
