Environmental health is the science of maintaining and improving human health by identifying, evaluating, and protecting against hazardous agents in the environment. This course will examine the impact the environment has had on human health and society over the course of US History. Students will examine how changes in medicine, awareness, social values, and economic factors contributed to major socio-political events, and how those events in turn affected human health and the environment. Case studies will focus on examining a particular historical event/period through a subfield of Environmental Health, and these events/time periods will be taught chronologically, supplemented by earlier and concurrent instruction in US History. This unique lens will give students another look at US History, and how deeply connected human health, society, and history have always been, as well as looking forward to challenges we may face, and how to continue improving the way we interact with the environment.
