This short communication only describes an academic semester long choice based elective program that was offered to students of senior classes of bachelor of architecture. It is not in the form of a research study. The intent of this communication is to share the work so that it can be replicated and students of architecture and planning made aware as the world has a recent memory of the pandemic, when public health became all the more important. They were taught the role of building laws and building practitioners in preventing diseases through the built environment through peer reviewed scientific evidence. Various class exercises were performed in order to train the students to get a sensitivity towards heath of inhabitants while designing buildings. The course was structured into six exercises which were taught over a semester. This was also follwed by small scale research projects that students designed and undertook independently. This short communication is a description of the same and warrants further work to replicate and test the effectiveness of the same.
