These two courses are: Public Health Implications of Disater (core requirement) & Homeland Security (elective course). As per our recent message, I have this order for week 10 belonging to the course of Public Health for the program of my master which is Disaster Medicine and management. – I will start with the course description (taken from the syllabus I’ve sent you before): The purpose of this course is to develop an understanding of the concepts of public health as they relate to disaster management. The student will apply Noji’s five phases of a disaster to actual public health disaster events during the last 25 years. The course will focus on what preparedness actions are necessary to safeguard the health of citizens and emergency personnel during a disaster event, as well as public health disaster response and investigation. Public health issues in disaster management that are covered include water and food supply disruption and contamination, waste disposal, environmental pollution and infectious disease outbreaks. The basic principles of epidemiology and health surveillance will also be reviewed. Statistical epidemiology will not be covered in this course due to the limited time allotted to give a taste of material which, in its full form does fill an entire master’s of its own. – The required Textbooks for this course (please see the syllabus): Required: Textbooks: 1. Ciottone, Gregory – Disaster Medicine, (2015) ISBN – available on line through library. 2.
