Cours

Groundwater and soil remediation

ENV-504

Ce cours porte sur les connaissances essentielles de la répartition des contaminants et de leur techniques pour surveiller les espèces chimiques, l'étendue de la contamination physique et processus biologiques. Les approches d'assainissement sont abordées en un deuxième temps.

Microbiology for engineers

ENV-202

Le cours "Microbiologie pour l'ingénieur" couvre les processus microbiens principaux qui ont lieu dans l'environnement et dans des systèmes de traitement. Il présente les cycles des éléments qui sont catalysés par des microorganismes et qui ont un impact important sur la planète Terre.

Terra Epidermis

PENS-211

Ce projet transversal vise à expérimenter autour d'un cas d'étude choisi, les spécificités de « l'envers du sol ». Sur un site choisi, les étudiants seront invités à proposer un geste technique et architectural unique, et à synthétiser leur concept sous forme graphique.
