  • CE 325: Sustainable Environmental Management

    3.00 Credits
    Lafayette College

    Sustainable environmental management is currently one of the essential elements in product design and facilities management. At the facility level, environmental management means everything from manifesting hazardous waste, to redesigning a product, to installing air pollution control equipment. Key considerations include economics, long-term liability, and public perception, both in the USA and globally. The emphasis in this course is on management, policy, and technological solutions that can promote sustainability with a focus on manufacturing facilities.[W] Prerequisite: Sophomore standing Staff
