      • Biostatistics II (with Advanced R) for Public Health Practitioners and Researchers in Liberia

        A certificate course to advance knowledge in Biostatistics through. Third of a course series being offered in partnership with the University of Liberia School of Public Health.

        Classroom Sessions (12 hours)

        Project-based learning

        In-person lectures will be focused on discussing statistical methods needed to address pre-defined questions from student-led projects. Backward design to curriculum development will lead to unique sets of concepts being introduced each time the course is administered.

        Lab Sessions (18 hours)

        Practical implementation

        We will work at our lab to practice implementation of biostatistics in R Statistical Software. Functions to conduct data visualization, data cleaning, and statistical modeling approaches tailored to student project needs.

        Independent projects (30 hours)

        Biostatistics for Health Decision-Making

        The final output of the course series is a presentation geared to a pre-specified audience (e.g., policy makers or community members) to communicate results of quantitative research and discuss impact on decision-making. Students will complete the projects both in the lab sessions and as part of independent work.
