Infectious Diseases and Global Public Health

This curriculum was developed for students to: learn about the biological basis of infectious disease; understand how diseases can spread and affect whole populations; explore the public health response to such threats; and get involved in their own communities. Case studies and multimedia activities are designed to debunk myths, stimulate creative thinking, and inspire the next generation of public health advocates.
