Epidemiology

The purpose I share my medical syllabus during my era is to help me know the topic should I revise during my free time to improve my medical knowledge and to give an idea for future medical students about the topic they would learn in medical school.

Topic of Epidemiology discussed during my time in Medical School:

1st semester:

- Introduction to Epidemiology and concept of illness in Epidemiology

- Concept of parameters in Epidemiology: Parameter of morbidity and mortality (prevalence and rate)

- Concept of morbidity and mortality based on person, time and place: Descriptive Epidemiology

- Surveillance Epidemiology: Activities, components and supportive equipment in surveillance, outbreaks and quarantine, Communicable disease, Non-communicable disease, Screening test

3rd semester:

- Clinical epidemiology: Introduction to clinical epidemiology and abnormality in clinical epidemiology, diagnosis, frequency, risk, prognosis, clinical decision making



*This medical syllabus copied and edited from 3 manual books for 1st semester medical student and 2 manual books for 3rd semester medical student from my university during my era. 
**The topic currently discussed in my university may different from this syllabus due to progression of medical knowledge and improvement of quality for medical syllabus based on my university assessment.
