CURRICULUM

The onsite phase of the ASIBS Short Course will take place over a five-day period at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai campus in New York City. The on-campus section of the ASIBS Short Course will serve to provide participants with intensive, hands-on SAS instruction that will complement their online, distance learning curriculum. SAS (Statistical Analysis System) is one of the most commonly used programs for data analysis by statisticians and data managers. The SAS instruction sessions will facilitate the statistical computing application of the content introduced in the biostatistics lectures, while simultaneously providing participants with a solid foundation in SAS programming. Each of the five days will consist of a 2.5 hour morning SAS Lecture and a 2.5 hour afternoon SAS Hands-On Collaborative Exercise, which will allow participants to practice what they have learned in the SAS Lecture through example-driven collaborative exercises.
