Summary
On this Master’s course, you’ll acquire advanced skills in epidemiology and biostatistics and develop knowledge of research methods commonly applied in epidemiology and public health.
You'll examine emerging research to build expertise in core epidemiological and statistical concepts to understand the distribution and causes of diseases in populations and explore possible prevention and control strategies.
You’ll also learn how to use mathematical models to understand the transmission of infections and to evaluate the potential impact of control programmes in reducing morbidity and mortality.
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 Imperial and external research partners.
