    This two-week on-line summer academy will be an immersive, collaborative, dynamic and academic experience for students who are planning to pursue a career as a statistician/programmer in pharmaceuticals and health analytics. This program aims to bring together statisticians, clinicians, drug safety, medical writers, marketers and academics who will provide guidance on drug development, their perspective on an outstanding statistician/programmer and what can get you there.   You will receive a certificate of completion at the end of the program. We expect that you will learn a great deal and can add this experience to your resume.
