The lecture is opened in the Faculty of Engineering for the second semester by learning the basics of environmental measures, experiencing technologies of environmental measures, and getting more knowledge by attending a symposium. Thus, students learn present status of environment and technologies of environmental measures in one year. Attending the lecture of either the first or second semester is allowed.

Expected Learning

First semester: Environmental Sciece and Technology I Lectures and trainings are made concernig environmental problems related to atmospher, hydrosphere, and pedosphere, and their impacts on microorganisms, insects, wild animals, and plants. Trainings at Field Museum Tama Hills and Tamagawa River as well as a symposium are included.
