SYKD2200 Public Health Course description

The teaching will largely consist of lectures and group activities. Students will also be given a project assignment in which they are to work in groups to analyze a case project and apply the learnings from the course to address the issues involved in the case project. Voluntary exercises related to the project assignment might be given in connection with each lecture.

Digital lectures will be recorded, and the material will be made available to students on CANVAS.
