Global & Environmental Health
Learn how climate solutions are pandemic solutions. What is the science behind diseases like COVID-19? How are diseases forming, spreading, or being controlled locally and globally? What patterns are there in infectious disease outbreaks and how can we reduce risk and prevent future outbreaks? Immerse yourself in cutting-edge science, from modeling to vaccines. Explore how ecological spillover, a warming planet, and pollution intersect with disease. Discuss the role of epidemiology in informing scientific, ethical, economic, and political discussions on health issues, both on a local and global level. Consider economic disparities between countries and how lack of access to quality healthcare impacts global health, and develop a framework for understanding not only our global health challenges, but also how we might overcome them.
