Outline and objectives

One of the most pressing issues the Earth is facing is environmental problems. Such environmental problems are universal issues, so all the people on the earth should cooperate to solve these problems. At the beginning of this course, each environmental problem will be focused from the chemical viewpoint. Then, the students with different backgrounds will delve into the matters. The ultimate goal of this course is that we think about these problems deeply by sharing possible solutions with each other.

Goal

The goal of this course is for students to lean environmental problems through chemistry. The objective 1) entirely environmental problems in the world; 2) to learn them you understand basic chemistry; 3) they think about solving the imminent problems by themselves.

Which item of the diploma policy will be obtained by taking this class?

各学部のディプロマ・ポリシーのうち、以下に関連している。法学部・法律学科:DP3・DP4、法学部・政治学科:DP1、法学部・国際政治学科:DP1、文学部:DP1、経営学部:DP3、国際文化学部:DP2、人間環境学部:DP2、キャリアデザイン学部:DP1

Default language used in class

英語 / English

Method(s)(学期の途中で変更になる場合には、別途提示します。 /If the Method(s) is changed, we will announce the details of any changes. )

Students will be tested on their knowledge of chemistry at the beginning of the course, and the contents for the first three weeks of the course will be decided, based on the test results. After that, many different environmental problems are explained each week.
