在这里学什么？

Epidemiology is the science that describes quantitative trends in health and disease for populations, with application in the biological, environmental, behavioral, and social sciences. Epidemiologists generally collaborate with multidisciplinary teams of health professionals, such as physicians, laboratory scientists, exercise physiologists, nutritionists, statisticians, veterinarians, and behavioral scientists.

Epidemiologists analyze public health trends, design and implement studies, and interpret study results for policy and program development. Beyond investigation into the causes of disease, epidemiologists also develop intervention strategies to prevent disease and promote health. Epidemiologists work at both the individual and community levels to translate medical and laboratory data into population trends.

Students complete a 48-credit curriculum for the standard program. Many epidemiology and other health-related graduate-level courses are available as electives. These allow students to develop a specialty emphasis in either specific public health topics or methodological areas. The 48-credit curriculum includes 22 Epidemiology core course credits, 8 SPH core course credits, 8 credits of biostatistics, and elective credits. An alternative, 42-credit curriculum is offered for students who have completed M.D., D.D.S., D.V.M., or Ph.D. work in a related field. The 42-credit curriculum includes 18 Epidemiology core course credits, 8 SPH core course credits, 8 credits of biostatistics, and elective credits. The standard and alternate programs require a final examination.
