A Certificate of Course Completion will be available upon request to individuals who are not UCSF students and who satisfactorily pass all course requirements. 

  • UC matriculated students who wish to register in specific DEB courses may apply each quarter as desired. Please be advised that the DEB courses are a part of the UC Self-Supporting Graduate Degree Programs, and as a result, course fees are assessed apart from, and in addition to, regular tuition and fees paid to the home campus. To cover the fees charged for the individual DEB courses, students will need approval and funding from their home campus/department. Payment for course fees will not be accepted from students. Only campus fund sources are allowable to pay for UC student enrollment in individual DEB courses.

  • If your department at UCSF is paying for your course, please have the following funding account information available before you begin the application: Fund ID # (4 digits), Dept.

EPI 258A Screening Questions

You indicated that you are interested in taking the EPI 258A: NIH F & K Grant Writing Workshop (Online).  

Please note that this is not a general grant writing class. Our course is specifically focused on the preparation of National Institutes of Health (NIH) mentored fellowship and career development awards in population health or clinical research. By the end of the quarter, students will have written a clear set of Specific Aims and drafted the Significance, Approach, and Training sections of an NIH training grant and created their Biosketch. Enrollment is limited due to the extensive writing requirements. Students and trainees applying for NIH F or K awards in 2026 will be prioritized.  Enrollment is not guaranteed and based upon the course director's approval:  





Health Data Science Course Screening question

Please review the prerequisite section DATASCI 216 Course Description page: 

Machine Learning in R for the Biomedical Sciences: Methods for Prediction, Pattern Recognition, and Data Reduction (DATASCI 216) 

If you believe you have met these requirements with equivalent experience, please email the course director to request a waiver of the posted prerequisites.   If you have not met these prerequisites, please use the back button to remove the course from your application.
