PH 210 Epidemiology of Health and Healthcare

This course is designed to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and shared vocabulary needed to recognize a wide range of study designs used to evaluate public health questions, and to critically assess the relevance and validity of their conclusions. In doing so, the course provides students with a framework for further learning and application, whether it be moving on to biostatistics and advanced methods courses, using data and/or literature to make persuasive policy arguments grounded in awareness of the strengths and weaknesses of the available evidence, or designing and implementing high quality studies of their own in which sources of bias are minimized and limitations to the conclusions are thoughtfully acknowledged.
