COR 313 - Pandemics: Panic, Pathology and,Preparation

Are pandemics really the new global terror, or are they a convenient media villain? And what is the suitable response, if not terror and panic? Students will learn about the origins and spread of pandemics, and the media frenzy and public panic that often accompanies them. Working with public health workers across the globe, they will create materials that help better prepare for pandemics, and will make a final presentation that addresses the question “How can students provide leadership in the event of a pandemic?”?
