concepts, techniques, algorithms, and tools to use in their professional
endeavour for handling issues related to environmental management, e.g.,
detecting and measuring environmental variations.
Students will also gain hands-on experience in
designing field or laboratory based research projects to monitor environmental
systems, making use of appropriate field, laboratory and measurement
equipment.
