Introduction To Learning Guide

This document provides information about an Environmental Management module for first year students. It includes the module code, credits, purpose, outcomes, schedule, assessments, assignments, required textbook, and ECSA exit level outcomes. The module aims to create awareness of the effects of human activities on the environment and the processes, technology, legislation, and financial provisions required to manage environmental impacts. Assessments include two class tests, assignments, and mini tests. A group assignment assessing ECSA outcome 7, which evaluates understanding of engineering impacts on social and environmental well-being, must be passed for an overall pass in the module.

Environmental Management

Environmental Management can be defined as “the management of


the interaction and impact of human activities on the natural
environment”. Environmental management tries to identify the factors
that have a stake in the conflicts that may rise between meeting the
needs but protecting the environment.
