Prerequisites: CHEM 126. This course includes an interdisciplinary review of fundamental scientific principles necessary to understand basic environmental health science. Basic science and engineering knowledge is applied to the recognition, evaluation and control of physical, chemical and biological processes that influence human health and welfare. The impact of contaminants ranging from industrial pollutants to biological agents and environmental disease vectors will be analyzed. This course is based on the premise that exposures to the environmental stressors that cause harm can be recognized through the observation of environmental quality parameters and mitigated by source controls and pollution prevention.
