Environmental Management: Problems and

There is a growing need to support undergraduate educators in the development of environmental management educational materials. Recognizing this need, the National Science Foundation funded a College Faculty Workshop on Environmental Management, that was conducted at Utah State University in July & August 1996. The principle objectives of the seminar were (1) to provide a meaningful course which would generate new ideas & innovative educational approaches in the emerging field of environmental management, & (2) to develop an applications-oriented problem workbook which would support undergraduate faculty involvement in the production of course materials. The result of this effort is Environmental Management: Problems & Solutions, an informative text on the essentials of environmental management. More than 200 structured problems presented in the book are meant to elicit a sound understanding of the basics of environmental monitoring, assessment & control. Detailed solutions to each problem, provided with each chapter, will prove useful to both the student & the instructor. This innovative text is a valuable resource for anyone involved in training of engineers & scientists in the field of environmental engineering.
