Tematika

The main goal of this course is to familiarize the students with the environmental protection as an increasingly important science. The course intends to introducing the structure, composition of the most important environmental elements (air, soil, water), their pollution and the related diseases, furthermore introducing the global nature protection including its institutional background. The students will be familiarized with the environmental protection, and the role of environmental monitoring in public health.
