Module description
During this module you should expect to become acquainted with the essential and advanced numeracy needed to be an effective public health decision-maker.?? You will then integrate treatment of statistics alongside population health intelligence and data sources.

The assessment will include a comparative critical appraisal with a focus on how evidence informs decision-making, a coursework portfolio and take-home exam. While predominantly delivered online, you should expect to take advantage of a series of scheduled teaching days and drop-in clinics.
