BI220 Impact of Disease on World History
In this course, students will study the impact, consequences, costs, and the lessons learned from disease outbreaks throughout history. Crucial to this examination is learning how past experience can help us deal effectively with current or anticipated disease outbreaks. Students will also learn how disease transmission and pathology data have been amassed through the use of a scientific method and how this information is constantly open to retesting and reinterpretation as better evidence becomes available. Does not count toward completion of biology major or minor. Offered in ADP upon sufficient demand.
