All life is in contact with the "environment" and there are no exceptions in this world. All life is affected by the environment
in various ways, and in the case of humans, this is manifested in the form of health effects. Elucidating the causes and mechanisms
by which the environment influences human health is extremely important for both academic and social reasons. In this course,
students will conduct research on environmental health issues that are currently occurring in the world and present their
findings.
[Notice]
(1) The lectures are online lectures using ZOOM, etc. will also be conducted.
Please note that you will need to prepare your network environment and PC environment in advance.
(2) In the case of online lecture, there may be presentations and group discussions. Please take the class in an environment where you can cope with these situations (e.g., be considerate of the students around you when speaking).
(3) We will use Google Classroom, a system similar to ScombZ, to check attendance and administer quizzes for each lecture (mid-term and final exams are yet to be determined). Google Classroom requires that students register for classes, and we will announce how to register for Google Classroom through ScombZ after regular registration. Please make sure to always check for announcements from ScombZ.
(4) There is a limit to the number of students who can take the course. Please be aware that if there are too many applicants for a course, the course may be selected by lottery, etc.
