课程简介

课程名称:环境危险与全球公共卫生 课程概述:本课程是“环境对全球公共卫生影响”专业化的第二门课程,旨在探讨多种环境危害,包括空气污染、水污染、固体和危险废物以及两种物理危害(氡气和噪声)。这些危害都可能对人类健康造成伤害,课程将探讨我们如何接触这些危害,它们是如何危害我们的,以及我们可以采取什么措施来减少这些暴露和健康影响。除此之外,我们还将研究两个关键主题:城市和全球健康,以及人造环境对人类健康的影响。 课程大纲: 第一周:空气与水污染 描述:欢迎来到第一周!本周我们将开始课程的导向,并介绍我们的学习社区。接下来,我们将覆盖两个对生活影响巨大的重要主题:水污染和空气污染。在第一周的模块中,大家将深入了解这些内容。 第二周:物理危害(噪声和氡气)及固体废物 描述:我们都暴露在可能影响生活质量的物理危害中。因此,问题在于如何管理我们对这些噪声、氡气及固体和危险废物等危害的暴露。在第二周的模块中,大家将学习这些物理危害的知识。 第三周:城市化与全球健康 描述:城市化是一个影响环境的全球现象,因此也在显著程度上影响我们的生活。城市化与全球健康息息相关。在第三周的模块中,大家将深入探讨城市化及相关内容。 第四周:人造环境 描述:我们大部分的生活环境是为了特定目的而设计和建造的。问题在于如何在保护的同时设计人造环境?在最后一周的第四模块中,大家将了解如何实现这一目标。

课程大纲

Name:Week 1: Air & Water Pollution

Description:Welcome to Week 1! We start this week with an orientation to the course and our learning community. Then, we start our course by covering two important topics that touch our lives in an immense way: water and air pollution. Let’s find out about water and air, and more, in the Week 1 module.

Name:Week 2: Physical Hazards (Noise and Radon) and Solid Waste

Description:We are all exposed to physical hazards that can affect our quality of life to different degrees. The question, therefore, is how to manage our exposures to these hazards such as noise, radon, and solid and hazardous waste. Let’s find out about these types of physical hazards, and more, in the Week 2 module.

Name:Week 3: Urbanization and Global Health

Description:Urbanization is a global phenomenon that affects our environment, and therefore our lives in a significant way. As such, urbanization is tied to global health. Let’s find out about urbanization, and more, in the Week 3 module.

Name:Week 4: Built Environment

Description:Most of our living environment is designed and built for specific purposes. The question is how to design a built environment while protecting it at the same time? Let’s find out how, and more, in Week 4, our last module.

课程详情

The second course of the Impacts of the Environment on Global Public Health specialization will explore a number of different environmental hazards. These are: air pollution, water pollution, solid and hazardous waste, and two physical hazards (radon and noise). These hazards each have the potential to harm human health, and we will explore how you may come into contact with these hazards and how they may harm you, as well as what we can do to minimize these exposures and health impacts. We will also explore two additional key topics: urban and global health, and the influence of the built environment on human health.
