School of Pub Hlth & Hlth Sci 615 - Epidemiology & Biostatistics A

This course is designed to give you an integrated introduction to epidemiology and biostatistics. These two disciplines are closely related and together they provide public health workers with the skills needed to investigate disease and determine its effects in the population, and what its possible causes may be, as well as how to generate and evaluate evidence that will help with these goals. We will be working in a hands-on way to learn to use the tools of epidemiology and biostatistics to describe populations, estimate the impact of disease, and evaluate the effects of exposures.

Open to graduate students in the School of Public Health and Health Sciences. This course is for SPHHS graduate students and those students enrolled in an SPHHS 4+1 degree program. If you would like to be enrolled but are unable to enroll yourself, please contact the instructor.
