About this Unit
This unit is being replaced by 300626 Epidemiology in 2010. Epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of health related states in populations for the management of health problems. Epidemiology is not limited to the study of epidemics but is a method for measuring and managing physical, mental and social health in the workplace and the general environment. The practical component involves a small area field study selected by the student, and analysis using computer applications. This unit meets a variety of needs while introducing the epidemiological method for risk assessment and research.
