The Biomedical Data Science Program is interdisciplinary and offers instruction and research opportunities leading to MS and PhD degrees in Biomedical Data Science. All students must complete the core curriculum requirements and additional coursework to fulfill degree requirements and pursue their technical interests and goals as specified for each degree program.

The program can provide flexibility and complement Stanford’s other applied medical research opportunities. Special arrangements may be made for those with unusual needs or those simultaneously enrolled in other degree programs within the university. Similarly, students with prior relevant training may have the curriculum adjusted to eliminate requirements met as part of prior training.

The GRE is not required for admission.

Individuals wishing to prepare themselves for careers as independent researchers in biomedical data science, with applications experience in bioinformatics, clinical informatics, or imaging informatics, should apply for admission to the doctoral program. Graduate Degrees summarizes the university’s basic requirements (residence, dissertation, examination, and so on) for a doctorate.
