How the 전문분야 Works
강좌 수강
Coursera 전문 분야는 기술을 완벽하게 습득하는 데 도움이 되는 일련의 강좌입니다. 시작하려면 전문 분야에 직접 등록하거나 강좌를 둘러보고 원하는 강좌를 선택하세요. 하나의 전문 분야에 속하는 강좌에 등록하면 해당 전문 분야 전체에 자동으로 등록됩니다. 단 하나의 강좌만 수료해도 됩니다. — 학습을 일시 중지하거나 언제든 구독을 종료할 수 있습니다. 학습자 대시보드를 방문하여 강좌 등록 상태와 진도를 추적해 보세요.
실습 프로젝트
모든 전문 분야에는 실습 프로젝트가 포함되어 있습니다. 전문 분야를 완료하고 수료증을 받으려면 프로젝트를 성공적으로 마쳐야 합니다. 전문 분야에 별도의 실습 프로젝트 강좌가 포함되어 있는 경우 각 강좌를 완료해야 프로젝트를 시작할 수 있습니다.
수료증 취득
모든 강좌를 마치고 실습 프로젝트를 완료하면 취업할 때나 전문가 네트워크에 진입할 때 제시할 수 있는 수료증을 취득할 수 있습니다.
이 전문분야에는 4개의 강좌가 있습니다.
강좌1
Summary Statistics in Public Health
4.8
90개의 평가
Biostatistics is the application of statistical reasoning to the life sciences, and it is the key to unlocking the data gathered by researchers and the evidence presented in the scientific literature. In this course, we'll focus on the use of statistical measurement methods within the world of public health research. Along the way, you'll be introduced to a variety of methods and measures, and you'll practice interpreting data and performing calculations on real data from published studies. Topics include summary measures, visual displays, continuous data, sample size, the normal distribution, binary data, the element of time, and the Kaplan-Meir curve.
강좌2
Hypothesis Testing in Public Health
4.9
38개의 평가
Biostatistics is an essential skill for every public health researcher because it provides a set of precise methods for extracting meaningful conclusions from data. In this second course of the Biostatistics in Public Health Specialization, you'll learn to evaluate sample variability and apply statistical hypothesis testing methods. Along the way, you'll perform calculations and interpret real-world data from the published scientific literature. Topics include sample statistics, the central limit theorem, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, and p values.
강좌3
Simple Regression Analysis in Public Health
4.7
20개의 평가
Biostatistics is the application of statistical reasoning to the life sciences, and it's the key to unlocking the data gathered by researchers and the evidence presented in the scientific public health literature. In this course, we'll focus on the use of simple regression methods to determine the relationship between an outcome of interest and a single predictor via a linear equation. Along the way, you'll be introduced to a variety of methods, and you'll practice interpreting data and performing calculations on real data from published studies. Topics include logistic regression, confidence intervals, p-values, Cox regression, confounding, adjustment, and effect modification.
강좌4
Multiple Regression Analysis in Public Health
4.8
13개의 평가
Biostatistics is the application of statistical reasoning to the life sciences, and it's the key to unlocking the data gathered by researchers and the evidence presented in the scientific public health literature. In this course, you'll extend simple regression to the prediction of a single outcome of interest on the basis of multiple variables. Along the way, you'll be introduced to a variety of methods, and you'll practice interpreting data and performing calculations on real data from published studies. Topics include multiple logistic regression, the Spline approach, confidence intervals, p-values, multiple Cox regression, adjustment, and effect modification.
