By the end of this course, the students will be able to:
CO1: Interpret fundamental biostatistical concepts, data types, measures of central tendency
and variability, and principles of reliability and validity in health and nutrition research.
CO2: Apply appropriate sampling techniques, hypothesis formulation, and sample size.
CO3: Analyze and select suitable statistical tests (parametric and non-parametric) for
bivariate and multivariate data in nutrition and public health research.

quantitative and qualitative data effectively through tables, graphs, and visual tools.
CO5: Evaluate and communicate statistical findings to support evidence-based decision-
making in clinical practice, public health programmes, and research reporting.
