Course details
The Environmental Regulation in Practice course aims to introduce students to the legislative framework which governs environmental protection together with legal aspects of health, hygiene and safety. Environmental law (ranging from international treaty obligation to local by laws) can be very different in theory from the practice. It is therefore important not only to know the current law but also to understand where it comes from, how it is interpreted by the regulated and applied by the regulators. With such knowledge, scientists, engineers and managers may all appreciate their legal obligations and liabilities and contribute more effectively to the implementation of environmental policy and legislation within the context of Sustainable Development.
