DESCRIPTION
This course introduces students to foundational statistical concepts and techniques used in the health and social sciences. Emphasis is placed on understanding how data is collected, analyzed, and interpreted in the context of health-related research and decision-making. Students explore a variety of statistical tools, including descriptive statistics, probability, normal distributions, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, correlation, and regression. Real-world examples drawn from public health, epidemiology, and clinical research are used to help students build practical analytical skills.
Throughout the course, students will gain hands-on experience using statistical software packages and programming languages commonly used, such as R. They will also develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills by working on practical assignments and projects that require data analysis and interpretation.
