EPAH 5010

This introductory course is intended for graduate-level students with no background or formal training in epidemiology and population health. This course introduces students to the basic concepts and methods of epidemiology, with various examples from the literature examining a wide range of health outcomes (e.g., communicable and non-communicable diseases, function, and general health status) from clinical and population health perspectives. Each class composes of a lecture and a class discussion. Active class engagement is a critical component of this course. Students are required to attend weekly Epidemiology/Biostatistics Lab.
