HOW to REGISTER OBJECTIVES of the COURSE Three steps: 1) send the application form to the secretariat; 2) upon acceptance, proceed to payment; 3) send copy of the bank transfer. Registration will be completed ONLY when step 3 is completed. Please note that: the maximum number of participants is 30. Applications will be considered in order of submission. Eight places will be reserved to PhD students that provide a letter of the supervisor in step 1. The University of Milano-Bicocca might provide one scholarship for participation of a PhD student. Modalities for application are explained in the web page. The course gives a broad introduction to concepts and methods in survival and event history analysis. The goals for the course are: - to understand the counting process formulation underlying modern survival and event history analysis, and be able to use it to derive heuristically the statistical properties of the most used estimators and test statistics; - to understand the assumptions underlying the commonly used methods in survival and event history analysis, and be able to choose a suitable model formulation in a practical setting; - to be able to use statistical software to analyse survival and event history data and to interpret the result of an analysis. The methods covered in the course have applications in epidemiology, clinical medicine, demography, economics, insurance, sociology, and technical reliability. DEADLINE for REGISTRATION is 20 January 2014 FEE Registration fee will be inclusive of teaching material, bus transfer, hotel accommodation and meals (from 16 to 20 March included).
