Epidemiology examines and determines which factors make an individual or an entire population ill and which maintain their health. With the help of epidemiological knowledge, many health policy measures have been implemented. With changing life conditions, new health risks are appearing and pushing the health spectrum of society into more chronic and partially preventable illnesses. Along with the methodological and analytical knowledge presented in this Master of Science programme, current topics in public health research and education will be offered, which reflect various possibilities for further specialisation. A focus on Epidemiology, Clinical Epidemiology, Genetic Epidemiology, as well as Environmental and Occupational Epidemiology will be accommodated.
The Master's programme in Epidemiology is a two-year (120 ECTS) programme, divided into four semesters. During the programme students choose two specialisations (in the first and third semesters) and carry out two internships (duration: nine weeks each) in the second and third semesters.
