Summer Programs In Epidemiology At-A-Glance

Each year we provide a short recap of summer programs in the Northern Hemisphere of interest to epidemiologists and other public health professionals. In 2019 we report on 23 different programs available in multiple different locations in North America, Europe, and the Middle East. This number reflects the addition of four new programs compared to 2018. Keep in mind these programs have registration deadlines. The registration for the program in Charleston closed before press time. These programs emphasize many different topics of potential interest to epidemiologists.

This summary provides a link to each of the programs so readers can obtain additional information on those of greatest interest.
