EOH 353 OL:  
  Global Perspective of 
  Environmental Health

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why take this course?

Environmental Terrorism. Global Warming. Hazardous Wastes. Cholera, Plague, Anthrax. And the list goes on... A wide array of characters have weighed in on environmental issues: people from Erin Brockovich to Rush Limbaugh have made some pretty disturbing allegations. Some of it true, some of it not...

A lot of people are scared. Others are skeptical.

So here's a novel idea: instead of being guided by public figures with an agenda of fear, votes, or higher ratings, why not look at the issues with a professor of environmental health? Sort the fallacies from the serious risks.

This course satisfies the upper division general education requirement. The field of environmental health has a tremendous need for new professionals. And hey, we're talkin' about the freakin' planet....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What if I'm nervous about online courses?

 

 

Our online courses have worked well for thousands of students.  But if you're still nervous about online courses, you can take Professor Koontz's partially online course. That way, you have the instructor you can talk with in person, but you have the flexibility that comes with online materials.   The section will not meet every week, because half of the coursework is online!
