Foundations of Epidemiology II

Undergraduate

Epidemiology is the science of studying and understanding the patterns of disease occurrence in human populations with the ultimate goal of preventing human disease. This course is the second in a two-part sequence. Building off of concepts covered in Foundations of Epidemiology I, it aims to develop an in-depth understanding of population characteristics and disease frequencies, epidemiological study designs, measures of excess risk associated with specific exposures, and inferring causality in exposure-disease relationships.
