Thesis II: Practice ​and Integrative Learning Experiences

Catalog description

This is the second course in a two-semester series that continues work on the culminating activity, the thesis, for Biostatistics (BIOS-MS and BIOS-MPH), Epidemiology (EPI-MPH), and Social and Behavioral Sciences (SBS-MPH) concentrations. The focus of this course is on completing the proposed thesis and preparing for the presentation of the final thesis. Students will work closely with their thesis advisor during the semester, but the course instructor will provide structural guidance on several remaining sections (results, discussion, structured abstract) of the thesis. The thesis should demonstrate the student's ability to think critically, synthesize foundational and concentration competencies, provide understanding and insight into a substantive area of inquiry, and convey ideas effectively to an intended audience.
