Abstract
Course Objectives: This course has two primary objectives and several secondary objectives. The primary objectives are:  Explore a variety of epidemic models with the aim of constructing a few models to simulate the zombie apocalypse experiment of last semester.  Organize and run a second zombie apocalypse experiment and compare the two sets of data with the aid of the model. The secondary objectives are  Learn mathematical modeling techniques not covered in Math 315.  Provide a basis for sophomores and juniors to begin their senior thesis work.  Developing skills to read applied mathematics literature and distill the information into its most essential components.  Practice presenting (orally) mathematical detail and biological background to a group of peers.
