The objective of the programme is to provide a large degree of autonomy in the use of Public Health Methods and the transmission of this knowledge in professional life.

Fundamentals of computer science are acquired at the beginning of the course. Both basic and advanced methods in statistics and epidemiology are developed through lectures and practice. Integration with other methods is illustrated in various fields : operational research, health planning, health services research, health strategies, demography. Participants are trained to communicate the acquired knowledge to their colleagues, through audiovisual and computer support.

The course is open to public health executives, medical doctors directed towards epidemiological methods, decision makers, health statisticians and research workers in the biomedical sector.
