Environmental Chemistry

What is Environmental Chemistry?

Environmental Chemistry is the science investigating the distribution of chemical contaminants between air, water, soils and organisms. It also studies the transformations that such chemicals undergo in these compartments, and their eventual fate, including the resulting effects in organisms. Additionally, Environmental Chemistry determines the mechanisms and rates of chemical change for major environmental compartments.

The Experience

Discover the environment at the molecular level and how it influences life at the global level. Your studies in Environmental Chemistry will address contemporary issues in modelling the behaviour and fate of molecules in the environment.
