The Certificate in Epidemiology and Biostatistics offered though Drexel University Online, is an inter-disciplinary program designed for working professionals coming from diverse backgrounds: public health administrators, physicians, nurses, clinical research professionals, health educators, policy experts and more.

The program provides research-oriented training in the theory and tools of core public health disciplines. Students build the statistical background needed to conduct research and learn how to develop hypotheses, analyze data, interpret and communicate results.
