Catalog description

raining scholars in evidence-based Public Health (PH) practice is essential as practitioners seek to develop high-quality, community-based interventions and implementation plans, create and evaluate PH policies, and seek guidance in the decision-making process. Thus, evidence-based PH relies on the most current high-quality information. This course will focus on significant evidence-based PH skills including literature searching, critical appraisal of PH outcomes, data management and publication through the use of applicable informatics tools and discussion. After completion of this course, doctoral students will have a strong foundation for conducting literature reviews and participating in the research process in academia or when practicing in the field of PH.
