This course introduces students to thanatology; the study of death and dying. Students develop an understanding of the broad, interdisciplinary nature of thanatology and will explore personal attitudes and experiences of death. Current issues and topics in thanatology such as death in the arts and media and the business of the funeral industry are also explored.
