This course is offered in two modes: either face to face (on-campus) and fully online.
This course is designed for a wide target audience consisting, public health, clinicians, health service managers and researchers who use evidence to implement programs and changes in practice. This course will provide students with a comprehensive picture of the emerging field of Implementation Science as applied to health. This course aims to develop students’ capacities to apply appropriate concepts, frameworks and methods needed for implementation of evidence-based interventions into practice. It will provide students with the ability to identify and critically appraise appropriate theoretical frameworks/models for design and evaluation of implementation in the real world. The course has an emphasis on practical learning experiences using real case scenarios and will draw on the work of internationally recognized experts in real world implementation of health and health related programs.
It is important that students enrolling in the course have knowledge and experience in public health or a health-related area. Interested students, who are not enrolled in a Masters program offered by the School of Public Health and Community Medicine will need to contact the course convenor, who will assess whether they have the appropriate background, before enrolling.
