Introduction to Epidemiology

Catalog description

Epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of disease in populations and remains the basic science of public health. This methodology is unique to epidemiology, and in some cases, has even been appropriated by other fields. The objective of this course is to familiarize students with the range of tools used to conduct epidemiologic analysis, including design and measures of association. This course will be taught as an online course combined with an intensive interactive session with faculty and students one weekend in Spring.
