NHP 702 - Epidemiology

Unit(s): 3 to 4

This course provides the opportunity to explore the causes of health and diseases through systematic and rigorous identification of patterns in populations, formulating causal hypotheses and testing those hypotheses by making group comparisons. Epidemiology is the basic science of public health, and, as such, provides the scientific underpinnings for understanding disease patterns so that effective public health interventions can be proposed, implemented and evaluated.
