GHHE 000/5120 - Introduction to Epidemiology (3 cr.)


Description
Public health practitioners and researchers, regardless of their discipline or specialty, rely on the results of epidemiologic research and often employ epidemiologic concepts, methods, and perspectives. Clinicians providing evidence-based health care do as well. This course presents a general introduction to the approach, concepts, methods, and perspectives of epidemiology for students and practitioners in a broad range of public health and related disciplines. The course employs problem-based learning where you apply the epidemiologic approach to a variety of current public health questions. Through GHHE 510 you will improve your ability to think analytically and to understand and interpret population-based and clinical research.
