环境科学理学士（荣誉）学位

现在，维持生活质量和清洁健康的环境是政府，雇主，非政府组织和公民的主要关切。欧盟现在有一项非常全面的环境政策，作为成员国，爱尔兰有义务按照该政策行事。在能源使用，废物最小化，废物管理，回收，水和空气质量等领域，对工业和社区提出了更加严格的环境要求。因此，强烈要求对科学，环境和健康与安全问题有充分了解的毕业生，以及对可帮助改善环境质量的技术和管理方法有全面了解的毕业生。利默里克大学环境科学之所以与众不同，是因为它通过关注环境技术，环境管理以及工作场所的健康与安全与工业和商业相关。
Maintaining both the quality of life and a clean and healthy environment is now a major concern of Government, employers, non-governmental organisations and citizens. The EU now has a very comprehensive environmental policy, and as a Member State, Ireland is obliged to act in accordance with this policy.<br>More stringent environmental requirements are being placed on industry and community in areas such as energy usage, waste minimisation, waste management, recycling, water and air quality. Consequently, there is a strong demand for graduates with a scientific understanding of environmental and health and safety issues, together with a full knowledge of technological and management methods available to help improve the quality of our environment. What makes Environmental Science at the University of Limerick distinctive is its relevance to industry and business, through a focus on environmental technology, environmental management and health & safety in the workplace.<br>Having followed a broad common first year, you will be provided with a strong foundation in biology, chemistry and ecology, and with an in-depth knowledge in environmental technology, environmental management, conservation and waste management.<br>The degree programme is four years in duration. Early modules are concerned with building up your understanding of core science relevant to the environment (biology, ecology, chemistry, computing, mathematics and physics) as well as core subjects in Environmental Science. The basic concepts used in these subjects are applied to specific environmental science applications. Later modules in the programme focus on the areas of environmental management, environmental technology, environmental impact assessment, geographical information systems, waste management, sustainability and conservation ecology environmental monitoring and health & safety.
