Just an FYI ping.

Personally, I think it's a good thing to spend a few credit hours going over some of the nonsense future scientists will come across in their professional careers, especially the stuff that spills out of biology and into other disciplines.

The material is too thin for an entire course. The course should be something like the philosophy of science, with emphasis on the scientific method, and various assaults it has endured. At least one course in logic should be a prerequisite.
