About the Course

Often called “the cornerstone” of public health, epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of diseases, health conditions, or events among populations and the application of that study to control health problems. By applying the concepts learned in this course to current public health problems and issues, students will understand the practice of epidemiology as it relates to real life and makes for a better appreciation of public health programs and policies. This course explores public health issues like cardiovascular and infectious diseases – both locally and globally – through the lens of epidemiology....

Very clear teaching strategies from the instructors. Some quizzes though are a little bit hard on my part because of the type of questions and answers. But overall it is a great course to take with.

The videos were amazing but most of the quizzes were nearly impossible to solve, especially the one in Module 2. Also, I am very sure that there are some errors as an answer marked as correct would appear as incorrect but marking the same answer again showed it as correct, even though the question remained the same.

Technically sucks. As of 18th April not possible to progress with the course as it is locked (says session will start on April 2 -yes today is 20th). Does not update deadlines. Does not allow me to submit assignment- does not even open screen for submission. So why do you allow me be enrolled???

The quiz portions of this course is the most ridiculous thing I've ever done. All "select all that apply, no partial credit". if you fail the quizzes it locks you out for 8 hours, for literally no reason other than to frustrate you.

The course was fantastic,very interactive.The quizzes were tough.But in the end provided with no certificate that is a form of recognition of the hard work that the participants had to go through which is frustating.

The lectures are not very well organized and are repetitive in definitions and explanations. More examples would be helpful in order to see the application of how these formulas and tools are used in epidemiology

Horrible course. Had a difficult time understanding, and the questions seemed tricky for someone who is not in STEM. Dropped out because I do not take courses that I have to rely on outside information for.

It wasn't what I expected and I didn't completely understand some of the information and it was poorly explained.
