Objectives
MODULE OF MEDICAL STATISTICS:
THE STUDENT WILL ACQUIRE KNOWLEDGE OF THE MAIN ISSUES OF MEDICAL STATISTICS OF INTEREST TO THE DEGREE COURSE. IN PARTICULAR, HE WILL ACQUIRE KNOWLEDGE OF THE MAIN MODELS AND THEOREMS OF MEDICAL STATISTICS, IN CONNECTION WITH THE ASSUMPTIONS ON WHICH THESE MODELS ARE BASED, CRITICALLY UNDERSTANDING ALSO LIMITS OF VALIDITY AND APPLICABILITY IN REAL CONTEXTS (KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING).
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY APPLY THE MODELS AND THEOREMS OF MEDICAL STATISTICS TO QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DESCRIPTION OF REAL CASES ALSO, AND ESPECIALLY, IN INTERDISCIPLINARY CONTEXTS OF INTEREST TO THE DEGREE COURSE, BY TESTING HYPOTHESES AND CONDITIONS ON WHICH THESE MODELS AND THEOREMS ARE BASED. THE STUDENT WILL ALSO BE ABLE TO EVALUATE THE QUALITY OF THE EXPECTED RESULTS BOTH IN RELATION TO THE INTRINSIC APPROXIMATIONS OF THE MODELS AND THEOREMS ADOPTED AND IN RELATION TO THE MEASUREMENT ERRORS (APPLIED KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING).
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO INTEGRATE THE NECESSARY KNOWLEDGE AND MANAGE THE COMPLEXITY OF THE INFORMATION IN THE ACQUISITION AND APPLICATION OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF MEDICAL STATISTICS, TO FORMULATE JUDGMENTS AND ASSUMPTIONS OF WORK, ALSO ON THE BASIS OF INCOMPLETE OR LIMITED INFORMATION, AND ON THE EFFECTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES RELATED TO THE PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF THE KNOWLEDGE (INDEPENDENT JUDGMENT).
THE STUDENT WILL ACQUIRE THE ABILITY TO PRESENT TOPICS COVERED IN THE COURSE OF MEDICAL STATISTICS WITH PROPERTIES AND SIMPLICITY OF LANGUAGE, AIMED ALSO TO A CLEAR AND EFFECTIVE TRANSMISSION OF CONTENTS AND RESULTS IN INTERDISCIPLINARY CONTEXTS, IN PRESENCE OF INTERLOCUTORS WHO ARE NOT EXPERTS IN THE FIELD (COMMUNICATION).
THE STUDENT WILL ACQUIRE SKILLS ALLOWING HIM TO EXPAND AND DEEPEN THE THEMES OF MEDICAL STATISTICS AND ITS INTERDISCIPLINARY APPLICATIONS IN AN AUTONOMOUS WAY (LEARNING SKILLS).

MODULE OF PREVENTIVE AND COMMUNITY DENTISTRY:
DEMONSTRATE PROFICIENCY IN UNDERSTANDING CLASSICAL AND ADVANCED CONCEPTS IN COMMUNITY AND PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY- LEARN ABILITY TO USE EPIDEMIOLOGICAL AND STATISTICAL METHODS AND STRATEGY - LEARN ABILITY TO INTEGRATE EPIDEMIOLOGICAL INFORMATIONS WITH CLINICAL JUDGEMENT- LEARN TO UNDERSTAND THE SCIENTIFIC METHODOLOGY INCLUDING THE ABILITY TO EVALUATE DATA ANALYSIS AND SCIENTIFIC LITERATURE AND INTEGRATE THE INFORMATIONS TO SOLVE CLINICAL PROBLEMS – ABILITY TO DEVELOP DENTAL PREVENTIVE AND TREATMENT PLANS FOR THE COMMUNITY

THE COURSE AIMS TO TEACH STUDENTS THE KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND ABILITIES FOR CRITICAL REFLECTION WITH RESPECT TO THE USE OF RESEARCH.
