This course provides students with fundamentals of the scientific principles that underlie ecological phenomena, combining scientific concepts with details on human issues related to food, air, water, land use, toxicology, population, energy, waste and environmental education. Students analyze case studies and conduct web research of global issues and undertake in-class debate of contemporary issues in environmental science.
