Focus on a set of methods for statistical analysis known as survival analysis and their application in the field of public health. These methods analyze data where the outcome variable is the time until an event of interest occurs. The event of interest is often, but is not limited to, death. Topics covered may include estimating and interpreting survivor/hazard functions, comparing survivor/hazard functions, and understanding the relationship of explanatory variables to survival time. SAS is used extensively in this course.
