Renewable Energy and Environmental Engineering (REEE)

Objectives

• This course is intended to:
  • provide a rigorous science-based integration of the physical, chemical and biological properties and processes that influence the environment and that also affect contaminants in the environment.
  •  provide a scientific basis that will allow for prudent decisions to be made to manage and mitigate pollution throughout the environment.
  • address environmental pollution issues through some complexities, multidisciplinary approaches.
  • illustrate the integration of physical, chemical, earth, and biological sciences with engineering, health, and social sciences can be successfully accomplished.
  • inspiring attendees to implement inter- and multi-disciplinary solutions for past, present and future environmental pollution problems.
