Policy Pandemic Management

2 Credits · Level: Graduate

This class will examine the policy landscape important for emergency management; including the lessons learned and new directions in public, animal, and plant health policies resulting from previous nationally significant epidemics and pandemics. Topics will span all levels of Federal, State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial (FSLTT) government policies and international frameworks, as possible, to give students a perspective on the ways in which policies at each level rely on coordination to affect the best outcome. Perspectives will be captured from these levels to identify and understand how strengths and shortcomings in past pandemic management can inform future emergencies from a One Health perspective.
