Assessments and Contaminants

Course description

In this course, students examine the nature and behaviour of environmental contaminants and practices used in the protection and conservation of water and land. They review environmental assessment legislation, and use case studies to illustrate ecological complexity while developing skills to assess and mitigate the impacts of various projects. Students prepare environmental assessment reports based on field investigations. Site remediation techniques and Record of Site Condition requirements are also examined. Industry experts help to connect in-class student learning to real-world examples and issues.

Students registering for credit courses for the first time must declare a program at the point of registration. Declaring a program does not necessarily mean students must complete a program, individual courses may be taken for skill improvement and upgrading.
