ENVM 521 - Risk Analysis (3)


Exploration of the risk analysis framework, focusing on its interplay between science and politics as an approach to managing health and environmental hazards. “Risk Analysis” is defined broadly to encompass the interrelated tasks of risk assessment, risk evaluation, risk management, and risk communication. Students are exposed to a synoptic perspective on how environmental problems, goals, and policies are actually shaped in the complex world of competing interests, conflicting ideologies, and incomplete understanding. Prereq: ENVM 506  or permission of the instructor.
