(5 credits)

In this course, students investigate randomized, controlled trials of health promotion and education programs as well as disease-prevention interventions, using communities as the units of analysis. Students engage in an in-depth exploration of techniques for randomization, multicenter coordination, data management, team building, statistical analysis, models for community assessment, publication, and ethics. Through case studies, students assess the univariate, bivariate, and multivariate statistical techniques used in the studies to analyze data. Students also gain practical experience developing a grant proposal for a research project focused on contemporary public health education/promotion.
