CHEM111L Environmental Concerns and Chemical Solutions
NS
M SchwartzJun 1 - Aug 26Online--31589$960
Course Is Full

The course has reached its maximum enrollment. For more information, contact 617 287 6200.

Description for CHEM111L:
Human society is constantly facing such environmental issues and problems as ozone depletion, air pollution, acid rain, and the dangers of nuclear energy. This course provides students with a foundation in chemistry that can be used to examine these and other environmental concerns. A combination of hands-on-work and small-group projects illustrates the science behind these issues, and helps students develop an unbiased view.
