Practical Experience Experienced

Summary of Practical Experience and Class Contents based on it Instructors are experienced in epidemiological studies, research methodologies, and health system management.

Message Research methodology is a logical and systematic approach to design any research protocol and to conduct the thesis or study. Health system management is a structured way to mobilize and allocate resources for preventing and treating diseases and injuries. Thus students are advised to have a clear concept of research methodology and health system management to develop new methodical tools, concepts, and theories to solve and understand scientific and nonscientific problems.

Other Course details will be announced during the 1st session.

Please fill in the class improvement questionnaire which is carried out on all classes.
Instructors will reflect on your feedback and utilize the information for improving their teaching.
