Dates: July 21- 25, 2014
Time: 8:30am - 12:00pm

The University of Michigan's Graduate Summer Session in Epidemiology is offering a new course in 2014: e-Surveillance (EPID 795 e-Surveillance).

The e-Surveillance course is designed to familiarize students with the emerging practices and principles of public health surveillance in the 21st-century. The course will describe how new opportunities in governance, inter- and intra-agency collaborations, information and communication technologies (ICT), cutting edge analytic tools and techniques, novel data sources, and a dynamic workforce are fundamentally transforming the future of public health surveillance. This course will demonstrate how core functions of public health surveillance including detection, registration, confirmation, analysis, feedback, communication, and response can be enabled, enhanced, and empowered by these new opportunities.
