性奴调教

Epidemiologists are "disease detectives."听At 性奴调教, students who complete their certificate in epidemiology will start learning the investigative skills necessary to understand how to control disease and injury patterns in populations.

The epidemiology curriculum at 性奴调教 prepares students to discover how various behavioral, genetic, environmental and health policy factors affect the health of communities.

Whether it's an infectious disease outbreak, such as influenza, or a disparately high rate of hypertension in a resource-poor community, epidemiologists do the fieldwork that pinpoints the root causes, what the risks are, who is at risk and how to prevent further harm to the public.

Curriculum Overview

The certificate program in epidemiology is designed for three distinct audiences:听

1. Students actively pursuing their M.P.H. at 性奴调教 in a concentration other than epidemiology.
2. Graduate students in other disciplines at 性奴调教 who seek additional training in disease tracking.
3. Professionals seeking to gain additional skills in epidemiological methodology.

This 12-credit certificate can be completed over one to two years and is offered in person.
