Throughout the module, students explore additional topics as part of the Specialized Competency Lines (SCL), such as SCL Methodology (health economics research), SCL Epidemiology (systematic review and meta-analysis), SCL Policy Advocacy (designing a policy advocacy plan for health system reform), and in journal club meetings related to SCL Philosophy of Public Health (patient and public participation). The overall topic of the SCL Methodology will be focused on health technological innovations. This includes a lecture on health technological innovations and an assignment attached to it. Also, it will include one workshop (in small groups). The overall topic of the SCL Epidemiology will be focused on systematic review methodology and meta-analysis. This includes a lecture on meta-analysis and a lecture on power calculations and an assignment attached to it. Also, it will include one workshop (in medium-sized groups) on methods. The overall topic of the SCL Philosophy of Public Health (PPH) will be focused on patient and public involvement/PPI in healthcare. This includes a lecture on logic of care vs logic of choice, and an assignment attached. Also, it will include a journal club (in small groups) on methods and implications of PPH in healthcare. SCL Philosophy of Public Health has 2 ECTS per semester, to be earned through its own dedicated exam at the end of period 2.
