Mastery of the principles and methods in epidemiology and biostatistics is fundamental for the investigation of and the response to challenging public health issues globally. Through this DeCal, we hope to expose undergraduates to the foundational concepts of biostatistics and epidemiology. Our goal is to broaden the perspectives of incoming freshmen and current undergraduates by exploring various public health tools and techniques. This DeCal will prepare students to undertake independent research projects, participate in formal research inquiries at UC Berkeley, and become scientifically literate public health information consumers.

Please enroll for 2 units.
