Graduate training in Pharmacoepidemiology and Safety Services includes two cores: didactic course work and independent research experience. Students are expected to join a research team during their first year of study and get involved in the design and conduct of Pharmacoepidemiologic studies. Typically, students will start their first independent research project in the second half of their first year of study. Students have access to SAS online learning modules and many complete their SAS Certification during their training at UF.
