Theoretical training
The Master's programme starts in August with the renowned
Erasmus Summer Programme (ESP) in quantitative medical research.
This international Summer Programme provides a sound and
up to date introduction to principles and methods of applied
quantitative research in medicine and health care. Key areas
of this 3-week programme are: biostatistics, clinical research,
epidemiology, human genetics and health services and public
health research. Apart from the Nihes participants, the
ESP attracts health professionals with different backgrounds
from around the world. You will attend a compulsory selection
from this programme. In addition, the curriculum consists
of Core Courses, Programme-Specific Courses , Skills Courses,
a two-day visit to the Municipal Health Service Rotterdam
and 15 -20 days of Elective Courses. In consultation with
the Nihes programme coordinator, you may mix and match electives,
permitting you to tailor the programme to your interests
and professional needs.
Research training
The research training starts with the formulation of a research
question and the design of a study at the end of the first
semester (December). The research proposal will be presented
and discussed in a meeting with fellow participants and
senior faculty members. The actual research begins in January
at the start of the second semester. You will be required
to carry out research and to write a scientific paper under
guidance of a personal tutor. Tutors are staff members of
the institutes and departments participating in Nihes. Research
will be carried out within one of the research groups concerned
(not necessarily at the tutor's institute). The paper must
be approved by the tutor and suitable for submission to
an international, scientific journal. |

The objective of the Master
of Science in Epidemiology programme is to prepare students
for epidemiological work in the areas of clinical medicine,
public health and health policy development.
Epidemiology is a fundamental discipline for clinical medicine
and public health. It may, together with basic science and
clinical research, provide tools to learn about the etiology
and consequences of diseases, the possibilities for prevention
and treatment, and the risk profiles of individuals and
populations. The MSc in Epidemiology comprises introductory
courses from the Erasmus
Summer Programme, courses in study design, data-analysis
and biostatistics. Participants will be able to follow advanced
courses in methodology and to further specialize in specific
areas of epidemiologic research. Training in widely used
statistical packages is a part of the programme as well. |

The Erasmus Summer Programme
emphasizes the understanding of principles and methods
of quantitative medical research. In addition, the programme
provides courses for those particularly interested in
clinical medicine, general practice and public health,
as well as for epidemiologists, geneticists and biostatisticians.
Six main areas are covered by the Erasmus Summer Programme:
biostatisticians, clinical research, epidemiology, health
services research, human genetics and public health research.
The first week provides introductory courses, the second
week is devoted to methodology courses and the third week
offers advanced courses. It is possible to enroll for
1, 2 or 3 weeks in a single discipline or to mix and match
courses from different disciplines in order to design
your own individual programme.
