The 4-week Summer Program in Epidemiology integrates mathematics and quantitative methods to provide students with an understanding of the skills and processes necessary to pursue a career in public health.
The summer program curriculum consists of three parts: introductory coursework in epidemiology and biostatistics; formal lectures, which are provided by faculty members with different foci in epidemiology; and a group research project where students will investigate a question of public health relevance that interests them. Students who participate in the program are able to meet with HSPH students as well. Students have the opportunity to meet with faculty and administrators individually, and the chance to explore the city of Boston. Participants recieve salary, housing, and funded travel.
