This unit will increase the ability of the students to apply the basic principles and methods used in biostatistics including application to public health studies. It is essential for health professionals to understand biostatistics in order to design, questionnaire development, conduct surveys, and interpret public health-related research. Students will learn how to describe, summarise, analyse and interpret health-related data. This includes the technical qualifications, such as use of SPSS and MS Excel, necessary for analysing and interpreting data on a descriptive, bivariate and multivariate level.
