Understanding the Biology of Water and Health – a beginner’s guide Learn more

?Do you have interest in biology? Do you want to understand the importance of water in our lives? Want to know the relationship between the two?
If you missed your biology classes then fear not because it is not the end of the world as you can get a second chance by taking this educational online course and learn about the marvels of water and its direct impact on the health of living beings on this planet. Before we proceed any further one thing that you need to understand is that water is the source of life on this planet without which life will cease to exist as we know it.
However, water needs to be properly treated in order to become safe for us humans to consume. Through lectures, exams, quizzes, readings, and other assignments, this water treatment online course will familiarize you with the biological elements of water systems from an engineering perspective. This water treatment course has no prerequisites, but is designed for graduate students, so you should make sure you can handle the rigors of advanced coursework before attempting to use the presented materials. All content can be accessed through the course page, though you can use a PDF reader to access a more user-friendly presentation.
The basic objectives of this course are:
- To give the health professionals an introduction to the engineering components which are involved in the provision of safe water and sanitation
- Providing engineers an ecological framework for understanding the place of water in health
- Identifying the central role of water in preserving health through adequate sanitation and hygiene
In addition to these, this course also examines the social, economic, and behavioural dimensions in a global context.
This course will be taught by Jeffrey Griffiths, David Gute and Bela T. Matyas.
