  • ENSC 450: Environmental Health Lecture

    3.00 Credits
    University of the District of Columbia

    A course which examines the effect of gaseous and particulate pollutants on human health. The epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and etiologic agents of diseases are discussed. Students will analyze environmental toxic chemicals and discuss their effect on human health. Other topics include hazardous wastes, pests, pest control, food additives, and air-, water-, and soil-borne organisms. The course will introduce students to a full continuum of analytical perspectives on global climate change and its documented and projected implications for human health. The course will also examine the relationships between the health of populations and health determinants in the context of environmental sustainability. Sustainability necessitates balance between natural capital and uses of natural capital for human and non-human ends. Pre-requisite: CHEM 111. Co-requisite: ENSC 451.
