Rowan University is offering a free, all-new course to students that will widely explore the COVID-19 pandemic and its implications moving forward.

Comprehending COVID-19, which begins online July 20, will provide students the opportunity to learn from Rowan faculty who are studying the pandemic from multiple areas and bringing a complex, reasoned look at ramifications of it and what we can expect. The eight-module course runs from July 20 to August 10 and will also be offered in the fall.

The one-credit course is free to all incoming Rowan freshman and transfer students. Additionally, it’s open to ongoing Rowan students for a one-credit summer course fee of $480. This course will also be offered in the fall, where normal tuition policies would apply.

“The world we thought we knew has been upended,” said Dr. Sanford Tweedie, Dean of Rowan’s Ric Edelman College of Communication & Creative Arts (Edelman CCCA), where the course is housed. “Comprehending COVID-19 will help students understand the pandemic from scientific, health, economic and media perspectives.” 

Communication Studies Assistant Professor Dr. Miles Coleman will lead the course, which will include presentations by faculty from Edelman CCCA, the College of Humanities & Social Sciences, the Rohrer College of Business, the College of Science & Mathematics, and the School of Earth & Environment.

Presentation topics will include the Biology of SARS-CoV-2, the Geography of Coronavirus, Health Disparities and COVID-19, and Life After COVID-19.
