Epidemiology Program

Epidemiology master students will learn more through field practice in 2^nd and 3^rd semester on “Evaluation of public health program” elective course (in 2^nd semester), and on “Evaluation and Implementation of Surveillance Systems and Outbreak Investigation” course (in 3^rd semester).  Through these courses, students are guided to evaluate one of the up-to-date public health programs and provide constructive input for the Health Service based on scientific studies. Furthermore, students are given the opportunity to investigate an outbreak of a disease that develops in the 3^rd semester, a new learning experience that is very valuable for students and for the District / City Health Service in DIY and Central Java.

To ensure that the Master of Public Health of Alma Ata University curriculum can provide excellent learning outcomes, especially about the evaluation and implementation of surveillance and outbreak investigation systems, UAA has developed collaboration in education and curriculum development with Taipei Medical University, Taiwan. Taiwan is a country that has a very good track record in developing surveillance systems, and has been praised by the World Health Organization (WHO) for controlling current SARS/Covid-19 virus outbreaks.
