Oakland University To Offer Post-Apocalyptic Survival Studies

This is definitely an improvement over womens studies classes, which teaches how to become an annoying victim for fun and welfare benefits.

Here is a sceenprint of their website:

Their course offerings do not have any Zombie scenario offerings, if they add a concentration on Zombie survival, I might consider taking it as distance learning. They should also consider Post-Obamalyptic classes.

Here is their Description:


Beginning in fall 2014, Oakland University will be offering an interdisciplinary program designed to prepare students for what some believe is the inevitable — the end of the world as we know it. The Post-Apocalyptic Survival Studies (PASS) program will provide the necessary skills to not only survive as an individual in an apocalyptic aftermath, but to contribute in a meaningful way. Blending theory and hands-on experience, students will take the required core courses and then choose one of three concentrations: 

  • Back to Basics
  • Rebuilding a 21st Century Society
  • Health and Wellness
Requirements for the degree include 24 credits hours in core courses and an additional 16 credits in one of three concentrations. The university’s General Education requirements must also be satisfied.

For those students who are much less concerned about the end of modern civilization, each of the concentrations can also be taken as a minor or certificate program. 

What if there isn’t an apocalypse in our time? Sure, there’s a chance that a catastrophic disaster will not force civilization into a downward spiral. But wouldn’t you rather be prepared if it did? In the event that the next 80 years are rather uneventful, the B.A. in Post-Apocalyptic Survival Studies still provides valuable insight into prehistoric conditions, literary and cinematic trends. As a graduate of Oakland’s program — the first of its kind — you will be uniquely qualified to: 
  • Design post-apocalyptic stock imagery
  • Write, produce or direct approximately 80 percent of the TV series and movies expected to be released in the next 100 years
  • Survive in otherwise extreme conditions longer than most people
  • Most likely win The Hunger Games or prevail victoriously on an upcoming season of Survivor
