Učební cíle

Students are able to conduct scientific literature researches, to choose, find, analyse, present and discuss literature and to work with scientific literature data bases. They are able to become acquainted with new theoretical and practical knowledge, to transfer basic knowledge to specific scientific problems and to discuss on scientific level. Students are able to transfer basic knowledge in chemistry and ecology to specific scientific topics and applications. Students are familiar with environmental-chemical processes in terrestrial and aquatic systems, the physicochemistry behind them, the interactions between the systems and organic and inorganic contaminants and their relevance for transport, enrichment, toxicity and bioavailability. Students know the rules of writing of English scientific texts.
