Objectives
TO EXTEND AND/OR REINFORCE THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED IN THE BASIC COURSES IN ORDER TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF NATURAL AND ALTERED ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEMS, PROMOTING THE ABILITY TO DEVELOP AND/OR IMPLEMENT ORIGINAL IDEAS.
TO DEVELOP THE ANALYTICAL SKILLS AND UNDERSTANDING OF ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES IN NEW OR UNFAMILIAR AREAS INSERTED IN BROADER AND INTERDISCIPLINARY BACKGROUND.
TO PROMOTE THE INTEGRATION OF THE KNOWLEDGE AND MANAGEMENT OF THE DATA OBTAINED DURING THE COURSE IN ORDER TO MAKE JUDGMENTS ON THE BASIS OF FEW INFORMATION.
TO DEVELOP THE ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE THE CONCLUSIONS AND THE ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE TO SPECIALIST AND NON-SPECIALIST FOR MONITORING, PROTECTION AND CONSERVATION OF NATURAL/ALTERED SYSTEMS.
TO DEVELOP THE ABILITY TO STUDY IN A SELF-DIRECTED WAY.
Prerequisites
FUNDAMENTALS OF GEOLOGY, GEOMORPHOLOGY, PLANT AND ANIMAL BIOLOGY, MICROBIOLOGY. FUNDAMENTALS OF INORGANIC, ORGANIC AND ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY. FUNDAMENTALS OF ECOLOGY. FUNDAMENTALS OF GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS.
Contents
EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH TO THE STUDY OF THE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONS OF ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEMS THROUGH CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL ANALYSES AND GEOENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATIONS, ASSESSMENT OF ANTHROPOGENIC ALTERATIONS.
