HPH 510 - Infectious Disease Epidemiology


This course is an introduction to the characteristics of infectious disease and dynamics of transmission. Major goals of the course are for students to understand the theoretical basis of pathogen transmission; to identify factors that determine patterns of disease spread within populations; and to identify populations at risk. The course will demonstrate how an understanding of epidemiological characteristics facilitates disease prevention and control, with broader implications for public health.
