Clinical Epidemiology & Health Services Research

About

The Master of Science Program in Clinical Epidemiology & Health Services Research program is designed for those who wish to plan, implement and analyze quantitative and qualitative research studies using appropriate research designs. The core of the curriculum includes research methodology, biostatistical techniques, data management, decision analysis, health economics and program evaluation. Graduates of the program are prepared to pursue academic careers in a variety of settings where data is required to answer complex questions. The emphasis is on training clinician researchers to teach research methods, conduct methodologically rigorous and scientifically sound studies, evaluate programs and perform cost-effectiveness and cost-benefit studies in a variety of populations. The goal of the Global Health Track within the program is to train a cadre of health care leaders who will direct clinical and public health programs in developing countries, conduct research to improve health of the resource-poor and teach the next generation of health care workers in developing countries. Physicians from resource-poor countries and other experienced health professionals can attend didactic training in New York during intensive blocks, and then return to their home countries in the interim periods to conduct mentored thesis research and continue their clinical and teaching responsibilities.

Designed for those who wish to plan, implement and analyze quantitative and qualitative research studies using appropriate research designs.
