Applied Studies in Health Services Research
SPH PM 950
This is an upper-level applied seminar, in which a small group of students is mentored through the completion of one of the most significant steps in the research process: the development of a manuscript for publication in a peer-reviewed journal. Students will analyze existing literature, previously collected data, or available datasets in order to explore a health services research topic and conduct all steps in developing a final manuscript for submission. Through a combination of workshops, written assignments, and oral presentations, students will develop research questions and/or hypotheses, conduct literature reviews, perform data analyses, and draft and edit each section of their manuscripts.
