HPR 073 - Framework and Design in Health-Care Studies

Semester Hours: 3
Once a Year
This course will introduce students to the concepts, principles and methods for conducting applied health research. In addition to reviewing basic public health and epidemiological research methods, the course also provides “state-of-the-art” health-care research through the review of major published studies. Students will learn how to locate information from professional and layman sources, analyze peer-reviewed journal articles for quality, bias and usefulness, and translate clinical findings into language appropriate for patients and the community at large. As such, the course will provide the basis for developing the knowledge and skills necessary to become effective “users” as well as “doers” of health-care research.

Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
This course is recommended for students who will pursue clinical health careers.
