Going Viral is a course that uses an interdisciplinary approach to examine how things (ideas, viruses, images, technologies etc.) spread in an increasingly global and digital world. With an emphasis on globalization, this course will use perspectives from epidemiology and biology to explore mobility and spread while also drawing upon media studies to pay particular attention to social media and the virality of digital content.
