  • Winter term(s) for residential students;
  • 3 credit hour(s) for residential students;
  • Instructor(s): Joseph Eisenberg (Residential);
  • Offered Every Winter
  • Prerequisites: EPID 600, BIOSTATS 503, 553, or another course that provides a similar background in probability and statistics
  • Description: Infectious disease transmission modeling provides a theoretical framework for the field of infectious disease epidemiology; i.e., it provides a basis for thinking about study design, data analysis, and decision making.
