Schedule of Lectures (FINAL)
This table provides the current schedule of classes for EPI 6276. It also lists the associated sections of the Aschengrau textbook. For more detailed session-specific readings, you should consult the separate material given here. The last two columns of the table provides links to any files which relate to the session (e.g. Power Point slides, if any). For many sessions, there will be no files to download. NOTE: the PPT versions of the files tend to be much bigger than the PDF versions although they both contain the same information. The content of all files is copyrighted to Dr. Birkett.

Optional Seminars (Wednesday afternoons)
We will be offering students in EPI 5240 the opportunity to participate in threeoptional ‘enrichment’ sessions. The main purpose of these sessions is to enable small group interaction and discussion, to complement the large and more formal lectures. The material for these sessions has been chosen to complement the lectures and will not cover core material. They will also not be formally considered in the evaluation/marking scheme. However, I encourage students to try and attend these sessions since I believe that they will enrich your learning experience.
The sessions will be offered on Wednesday afternoons, from 1300-1500. The sessions will be limited to 14 students per week but will be repeated on four consecutive weeks. Students will be asked to sign-up for a maximum of one session for each topic.
The sessions will take place in room 3233. All sessions will start at 1300.
