Demography

Demography is the statistical study of populations, especially human beings, analyzing their size, growth, density, distribution, and vital statistics. Coursera's demography catalogue educates you on the profound and far-reaching effects of demographic trends on societies, economies, and the environment. You'll learn about diverse demographic phenomena such as fertility, mortality, migration, population aging, urbanization, and their public policy implications. By mastering concepts like population pyramids, demographic transition models, and population projections, you'll develop a comprehensive understanding of the complex interplay between population dynamics and societal change.
