2011 GCOE Laboratory Short Course on Environmental Materials Science

Global COE Program in Hokkaido University “Establishment of Center for Integrated Field Environmental Science” (http://www.ees.hokudai.ac.jp/gcoe/en/) provides various kinds of career-up program such as international summer courses, field science short course, laboratory and modeling short courses.  GCOE laboratory short course in Environmental Materials Science 2011 will be held from January 16th to 26th in 2012.
This course will provide experiences in order to learn monitoring and characterization techniques of various substances in the environment based on chemistry as well as to learn methodology for environmental remediation.  We also expect this course will give great opportunities for students and researchers discussing and exchanging ideas about environmental chemistry.
