Designed and delivered in the School of the Environment, Geography and Geosciences (SEGG, now SELS) at the University of Portsmouth in the 2019-2020 academic year.
Geographies of Health and Urban Wellbeing was open to L5 (2nd year) students of Geography. The course, which covered infectious diseases amongst many other topics, progressed as the 2020 Covid crisis unfolded. Luckily, the lectures were pretty well complete before the first lockdown occured!
The course consisted of a series of ten lectures in two-hour slots with five two-hour lab-based practical sessions featuring content substantially revised from the original slides and practical exercises developed by Professor Liz Twigg, who had retired.
This marked one of three occasions in which Adrian replaced a professor while teaching at Portsmouth.
The Unit Handbook for Geographies of Health and Urban Wellbeing, including selected references etc., is shown below.
Colleagues at academic institutions interested in the original PowerPoint slides and bibliographic database may make contact to request access.
Businesses, government departments, third sector organisations etc. may wish to explore consultancy options.
