Course description |
Microorganisms inhabiting in natural environments is quite important in sustaining biogeochemical cycling in biosphere. The course introduces understanding of the microorganisms from the view points of microbial ecology and microbial physiology. The course gives essential knowledge needed for many aspects of bioremediation. |
Expected Learning |
Understanding basic concept of microbial ecology and microbial physiology and acquiring basic methodologies to resolve environmental problems by using microbial abilities. |
Course schedule |
