About The Program

Health research is a fundamental tool for providing reliable, valid and up-to-date information on the current health situation in Sudan and any other country. This, in turn, enables scientists, decision makers, health managers and representatives of the public to better understand their health problems and to develop and implement sound solutions for their control.

The first step towards achieving these target objectives is to enhance the research skills and capabilities among researchers, health managers and decision makers through theoretical and practical training on research methods and biostatistics.

The Diploma Program in Research Methodology and Biostatistics was launched in the year 2006 aiming at training workers in the health field and related fields the basic skills required for conducting proper research projects that will meet international standards and that will help achieving the overall objective in developing scientific and reliable strategies to tackle health problems.
