Hi,

I have been looking into the EC course Bioterrorism and was wondering if anyone had taken this not-very-popular course. Does anyone have any experience, feedback or advice? Thanks! Any help is appreciated!

I was thinking about taking that one, but I decided on taking Crimes Against Humanity and am currently taking International Terrorism. Can't beat the 8 week courses that they offer.

I guess it depends on what kind of career you want. Do you see yourself becoming a bioterrorist, or committing crimes against humanity? =)

I don't know anything about ECs Bioterrisim course but I teach a very short module on this and, frankly, it is quite interesting. I can see where this would be beneficial to anyone in health or emergency med, as well as an adjunct to FEMA courses.

Some really interesting history, going back for centuries.

Hopefully someone can answer your original question, though.

I did find this course appealing due to great EC 8 week course module, and by the interest of what Bioterrorism would cover. Granted, that being said, I'm not looking at Bioterrorism or committing crimes against humanity as my profession (!), but thought this would be a good course to further my health/med/emergency interest and pursuit. Thanks for the responses! If anyone would still like to comment, readily do so. Any comments (or if anyone has taken this course or a similar course, your feedback) is appeciated! If I do end up taking this course, I'll let you know what it is like. Still contemplating whether to take the step or not. Thanks!
