PBHL 3310 Fundamentals of Epidemiology
The course will examine principles of epidemiology and basic biostatistics in the context of real-world public health issues. The major focus is on the use of sound epidemiological judgment with an emphasis on understanding, rather than the mechanics of calculation. A series of case studies are used to teach the principles and practice of epidemiology, ranging from surveillance and descriptive epidemiology to outbreak investigations and analytic methods. A variety of interactive modules are used to facilitate learning and provide opportunities to explore specific topics in greater detail.
