There are a number of reasons why studying epidemiology is important. Firstly, it can help to save lives by identifying the source of an outbreak, and the best way to contain it. Secondly, it can help to develop new vaccines and treatments for diseases. Finally, it can also provide valuable information on the natural history of a disease, which can be used to improve prevention and control measures.

What can I do with a degree in Epidemiology?
There are many career options available for those with a degree in epidemiology. These include working as a public health official, medical researcher, or disease control specialist. Many epidemiologists also work in the pharmaceutical industry, developing new drugs and vaccines.

What degrees are available in Epidemiology?

During the last hundred years, epidemiology has been responsible for identifying health problems in communities, as well as studying the relationship of these events with the causes that generate them. These causes have made it possible to guide solutions through vaccination campaigns, prevention or control of diseases. Epidemiology, considered a fundamental discipline of public health, is in charge of studying the distribution and determinants of events related to the health status of specific populations and the application of this knowledge to the prevention and control of health problems. THE ACADEMIC PROGRAM CONTAINS THE FOLLOWING ELEMENTS: THE OCCURRENCE AND DISTRIBUTION OF DISEASES, THE EPIDEMIOLOGICAL RESEARCH DESIGNS AND THE APPLICATION OF THIS KNOWLEDGE IN THE STUDY OF THE POPULATIONS. THIS PROGRAM HAS TWO POSSIBLE AREAS: ÉREAS 1. CLINICAL INVESTIGATION 2. SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH GENERAL PURPOSE To train professionals capable of applying the scientific method in epidemiological research projects, which allows them to study the health problem at the population level, from its identification and description to the analysis and critical interpretation of the results, to contribute to improving health conditions. of the population, all in an ethical way. -

The Magister One Health - One Health, is based on this interdisciplinary approach that originates in the link and interconnection that exists between the human population, animal populations, and the environment where they live. This concept was conceived to design and implement programs, policies, laws, and research in which multiple sectors communicate effectively and collaborate, across cultures and educational backgrounds, to achieve better public health outcomes. This program addresses a wide range of topics under the One Health approach and provides a foundation in disease principles in the context of ecological, sociological systems, global health (human and animal), and food safety and security. -

The Specialized Master’s degree program in Infection Biology at the University of Basel is run by the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute (Swiss TPH), an internationally recognized center for public health excellence. Infection biology focuses on host-pathogen interactions and aims to understand the mechanisms through which viruses, bacteria, fungi, or parasites colonise their hosts and cause disease. Infection biologists study molecular, cellular, metabolic, or immunological aspects of pathogen biology and infection, try to elucidate mechanisms and evolution of drug resistance and immune evasion, or investigate dynamics of transmission and infection in the field. Knowledge gained from studying these and other aspects of infection biology provides the basis for the development of novel diagnostic tools, drugs, and vaccines for improved prevention and treatment of infectious diseases. -

The world is not prepared to face a pandemic, and beyond knowing if it will happen or not, it is a question of when it will happen. For this reason, the role that epidemiologists play is so important within the health unit and at certain government levels and public policy generation, because they have disciplinary information that allows them to observe health problems from a population and circumstantial perspective, which gives them a broad understanding of the issues that affect the world. The profound sociodemographic and migratory changes make greater academic training necessary; At AREANDINA we take on the challenge of improving the profile of professionals in the health sector and for this, the master's degree in Epidemiology provides conceptual and technological tools that allow the analysis of evidence for decision-making on health problems, at an individual and collective level, based on of the foundations of epidemiological surveillance and research, with the aim of optimizing public policies to have a better response capacity. -
