Course overview:On this Master’s course, you’ll acquire advanced skills in epidemiology and biostatistics and develop knowledge of quantitative and mixed research methods. You'll examine emerging research to build expertise in core epidemiological and statistical concepts to understand the distribution and causes of infectious and chronic diseases in populations and explore possible prevention and control strategies. You’ll learn how to use mathematical models to understand the transmission of neglected and novel infections and evaluate the potential impact of control programmes in reducing morbidity and mortality. You’ll also develop an understanding of concepts and modelling techniques that apply to molecular, genetic and nutritional epidemiology, as well as to environmental exposures and health outcomes changing in space and time. Using these skills, you’ll embark on an extended four-month research project, exploring an area of epidemiological research in further detail, under supervision of academics at the School of Public Health and external research partners.
