This course examines the relationship between health and the environment, focusing on how pollution, climate change, and ecosystem changes influence human health. Students will learn how these environmental factors impact public health and explore the roles of public response, policy, and technology in reducing health risks. The course is structured around three main components: Pollution and Health, Climate Change and Health, and Ecosystem Changes and Health. Through an interdisciplinary approach, students will engage with scientific research, real-world examples, and policy discussions to develop a comprehensive understanding of the links between health and the environment and address complex environmental health challenges.

It can be quite boring at times, but he was lenient with me. Some people mentioned bias in grading, not sure if it applied to me. Not an econ-heavy class, felt more like an environment. Not a difficult class except for the oral final at the end, just need to prep for that.
