Description
Applied Survival Analysis
This course focuses on methods for analyzing time-to-event data. The course will explore non-parametric methods for analyzing time-to-event data like Life tables, the Kaplan-Meier method, the Nelson-Aalen method and the log-rank test. This course will also explore semi-parametric models such as the Cox proportional hazards regression models and parametric models including exponential, Weibull and log-logistic regression model.

Prerequisite: STAT 308 (Applied Regression Analysis).

Outcomes: Derive survival and hazard functions from an underlying distribution, calculate survival probabilities and hazard rates, compare survival probabilities and hazard ratios between two or more cohorts.
