+Wildlife Epidemiology will be offered in Semester 1, 2009. This course is only run if there is a sufficient class size (e.g- 5-10 students onwards) for it. Students are encouraged to invite their peers/colleagues/networks who are interested to register for this course together, which will then provide us with an opportunity to run this class.
