STANFORD EES: CEE 276E SPRING 2010
Brief Overview
Survey of chemicals present in the environment that pose toxicity risk. Introduction to environmental toxicology principles for identifying and characterizing toxicants based on sources, properties, pathways and toxic action. Discussion of selected past and present environmental toxicant issues.Requirements
There are two types of requirements that you should know about. One is the course pre-requisites in inorganic and organic chemistry, particularly nomenclature, bonding and structures. The other is a "team attitude requirement" where you have to be able to adjust and respond to the collaborative environment. The pace will fluctuate, schedules will sometimes get tight, and workload can get really heavy. You will be placed in "no-excuses" and "can-do" situations, and you must do your best critical and strategic thinking to perform well.
