Core Courses
GMS5201
Implementation Science for Health Services
Students are introduced to the principles of translating evidence for better services into a clinical setting. Students will learn processes and factors associated with successful integration of evidence-based interventions within a particular setting, assess whether the core components of the original intervention were faithfully transported to the real-world setting and gain new knowledge about the adaptation of the implemented intervention to the local context.

GMS5202
Research Methods for Health Services
This course is about the current practice of health services research. It includes a discussion of the reproducibility crisis. The sources of data that are commonly used to address research questions are reviewed and critiqued. Finally, different approaches to assessing causality and associations are taught. An introduction to qualitative research methods is provided and students are taught about systematic reviews and meta-analyses.

GMS5203
Health Technology Assessment, Cost-Effectiveness and Decision-making
This course is about how decisions are made about what services are provided and who receives them. Health technology assessment is a well-established tool used when decisions need to be made quickly. It is an exercise in synthesising current evidence and responding appropriately. Economic evaluation offers a theory-based approach to informing choice and trade-offs given resources are scarce. Various modelling approaches are used to complete economic evaluations. The course also covers on how hypothesis testing differs from decision making, such as disruption and non-rational processes and outcomes.

Data Science + Healthcare
Students will be exposed to the foundation concepts, case studies and applications, some mathematics behind data science models and algorithms. There will be practical sessions for model development, training, validation and tests. Students will acquire new knowledge of data science techniques enabling them to make predictions about likely diagnoses, prognoses of health conditions and risks of adverse events. There will also be a mini-project and healthcare case studies to demonstrate the applicability of data science as a key enabler for improving the delivery of health services.
