This course is designed to provide a solid research foundation to students interested in health education and health promotion emphasizing systematic approaches to the application of research methods, designs and data collection strategies. Students will understand and apply ethical standards related to health education research, develop pertinent research questions and hypotheses, develop proposals, design data collection instruments, identify and critique research in terms of design, technique, analysis and interpretation, as well as explore and practice research dissemination. This course is writing intensive. Thus, informal and formal writing instruction and production will occur to develop effective scholarly writing and research reports.
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides the student with an overview of morbidity surveillance by understanding disease etiology, distribution, and control. the course will focus on disease surveillance related to exercise, rehabilitation, public, and community health through both descriptive and analytical methods. Students will examine and discuss cohort, case, and experimental studies to further illustrate epidemiological concepts, including study design, disease distribution (e.g.,outbreaks) measures of disease frequency, and determinants of disease, disability, condition and injury.
