This $100,000 Project Grant award from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) under the Promotion of the Humanities Teaching and Learning Resources and Curriculum Development program (CFDA 45.162) supports a faculty collaboration at Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University to develop new approaches to undergraduate instruction connecting the humanities and health sciences. The project team representing five academic departments will participate in a summer workshop and ongoing meetings to explore the relationship between humans and infectious diseases, with the goal of creating three new interdisciplinary courses on human dimensions of infectious diseases, history of infectious diseases, and health disparities and infectious diseases. This collaboration aims to produce innovative educational materials and pedagogical approaches that will be offered on a regular basis at the university.
