Course Descriptions

ENV 420 Environmental Chemistry

ENV 420 Environmental Chemistry

ENV 420 Environmental Chemistry

This course is designed to develop a working level knowledge of: (1) systems thinking  (2) fundamental chemistry; and (3) the basic principles and concepts of environmental chemistry. The participant will also acquire a familiarity level knowledge of: (1) field sample collections, (2) sample preparations, (3) analytical field analysis and, (4) water treatment. 

 4.00 Credit Hours

ENV 305 Environmental Health

ENV 420 Environmental Chemistry

ENV 420 Environmental Chemistry

 This course is designed for students pursuing an environmental science minor or future health professions career. The primary objective of this course is to introduce students to the environment effects upon human health. The ecological position of human populations within the global ecosystem will be presented along with human populations with the local environment. Impacts of natural environmental factors and pollutants on human health will be explored including case studies. Subjects to be addressed will include effects of natural carcinogen, ultra-violet light, invertebrate disease vector, epidemiology, ecotoxicology, density-dependent disease transmission, food supply health, and water supply quantity and quality. 3.00 Credit Hours

ENV 491 Soils and Hydrology

P421 Foundations of Health Physics

P421 Foundations of Health Physics

 The course will review the fundamentals of soils and hydrology essential to environmental science careers are discussed. Topics include soil physical properties that affect transport and retention of pollutants, saturated and unsaturated flow in the soils, drainage, and basic aquifer characteristics. In addition to the historical background of SRS, a big component of this course (95%) is collecting and analyzing approximately 130 groundwater samples around SRS facilities. Report writing is a very important component of student training in environmental monitoring. Students will be involved in technical and scientific writing to master complete and accurate data reporting and information summarization of field work experience. 4.00 Credit Hours

P421 Foundations of Health Physics

P421 Foundations of Health Physics

P421 Foundations of Health Physics

This is a course for science and engineering majors that is designed to teach students basic principles in Health Physics. The student will acquire the background necessary for effective participation in operational radiation protection.
