Exposure and Risk Assessment · 3 credits · Fall 2026
About this course
The purpose of this course is to provide students with an overview of environmental policy, with a focus on demonstrating how toxicology and exposure measurements are used in environmental risk assessment and management. Students are presented with the basic elements of a quantitative risk assessment including hazard identification, exposure assessment, dose-response assessment, and risk characterization. Students are taught how municipal, state, federal and international agencies implement and assess the success of environmental policies, while taking into consideration the social and economic considerations in environmental management frameworks. Several examples from local, federal and international policies will be used to explore the assessment and management process.
