Mixed methods systematic reviews combine qualitative and quantitative evidence to answer complex applied health and public health questions. These methods are becoming increasingly important as we seek to understand why interventions may have different results for different people in different situations. This Mixed Methods Systematic Review and Searching the Evidence course is offered at the University of Leeds.

General requirements
- The ‘review’ course is for you if you are interested in understanding how mixed-method synthesis provides a deeper understanding of complex interventions and their implementation. It is suitable if you already have a good understanding of systematic review methods – i.e. you have had in-depth training and/or conducted a systematic review (quantitative or qualitative) before.
- The mixed methods course is not suitable if you are new to systematic reviews. It does not provide basic systematic review training (screening, data extraction, quality assessment) or meta-analysis. The ‘review’ course focuses on advanced synthesis methods.
- The ‘searching’ course has basic and advanced elements, some sessions are split, allowing those with less experience to practice core skills while the more experienced try advanced and emerging methods.
