Infectious disease courses can help you learn epidemiology, infection control methods, and the biology of pathogens. You can build skills in outbreak investigation, data analysis, and public health communication. Many courses introduce tools like statistical software for analyzing disease trends and modeling software for predicting outbreaks, that support applying your knowledge in real-world health scenarios.
