University to offer course on zombie TV show

A university is to offer a course based entirely on a zombie TV show.

Students at the University of California will soon be able to study everything about hit series 'The Walking Dead' – which stars Melissa McBride and Andrew Lincoln – after the show's creator AMC joined forces with the education facility.

The online course will last for eight weeks and is due to teach students about "Nutrition and stress physiology in a high-stress environment" and "What can an apocalypse teach us about anthropology and sociology?"
