UC Irvine to offer online class based on The Walking Dead

From Time:
“The Walking Dead provides many poignant case studies related to the scholarly areas
covered in the course, and it helps that it’s one of TV’s most popular shows,” said
public health professor Zuzana Bic in a press release. “There will be something for
everyone in this course, which will explore concepts as varied as post-disaster nutrition,
the foundations of human survival and stereotypes in a Darwinian environment.” “I’ve
never taught a class on math related to zombies before, but this is the same mathematical
content I’d teach to undergraduates at UCI, and a way to reach new students,” UC Irvine
mathematics lecturer Sarah Eichhorn said in an interview with All Things D.
