The MPH Applied Epidemiology & Population Health Methods concentration prepares students for real-world application of epidemiology principles and techniques to address public health problems in the community. Students learn to assess the frequency, distribution, and determinants of population health through traditional and innovative epidemiologic methodologies. This concentration provides training in quantitative and analytical methods and evidence-based strategies to address public health issues. With rigorous methodological training in epidemiology, biostatistics, and research methods, students will apply skills in survey research, geographic information system (GIS) mapping, and data management and visualization. This rigorous training is paired with teaching through a social justice lens with a focus on reducing health disparities, promoting health equity, and improving population health, especially among historically and systemically disadvantaged communities. Students gain a highly marketable skill set for employment in public and private sectors. Program emphasizes analysis, interpretation and presentation of real world data to address community health problems.
