Ever wonder how you’d fare in a zombie apocalypse? AMC, Instructure and the University of California, Irvine today announced the joint production of a massive open online course (MOOC) exploring a broad range of topics through the lens of a hypothetical zombie apocalypse.

UC Irvine is hoping that a hit show about a zombie apocalypse can make higher learning about advanced mathematics and other serious academic subjects more palatable.

The eight-week course called Society, Science, Survival: Lessions from AMC’s The Walking Dead  — which begins Oct. 14, the day after the premiere — will feature lectures from four instructors across a range of disciplines: public health, social science, physics and mathematics.

This course will run for 8 consecutive Mondays starting the Monday after the season premier of The Walking Dead. ( October 14th  through December 2nd.)

I’m doing it just for fun.
