Welcome to PRINCIPLES OF POPULATION CHANGE (380.600.01), an online course
offered by the Department of Population, Family and Reproductive Health at
the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
The course provides students with a basic understanding of the science of
demography and of the health implications of major population issues in the
contemporary world. Students explore population changes over time; elements
of demography; child survival and mortality; family and households and
demographic change; the demography of social and economic inequality, the
role of women, urbanization, migration, and fertility. Finally, students
examine world demographic patterns, synthesizing the data and issues
surrounding the importance of population to public health.
We hope you enjoy the course.
