Graduate Certificate

Infectious Disease Dynamics, Analytics, and Modeling, Certificate

Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health 68 courses

About This Program

This certificate program will provide students from diverse academic backgrounds with the skills to use mathematical and statistical modeling techniques to quantify and predict the spread of infectious diseases. Students in the Certificate in Infectious Disease Dynamics, Analytics, and Modeling will take coursework covering i) the foundational epidemiological principles of infectious diseases, ii) advanced mathematical, statistical, and computational techniques relevant to analyzing infectious disease data, and iii) a specialized course on applied infectious disease modeling. They will be able to calculate metrics describing disease transmission, create mechanistic models of disease transmission, clinical progression, and control, use statistical methods to estimate model parameters and forecast disease dynamics, critically evaluate disease models in the scientific literature, and communicate model results to diverse stakeholders. Contact information and complete certificate program admissions information are available on the certificate program page on the Bloomberg School of Public Health website.
