The goal of this course is to introduce students to unifying concepts of biology, microbiology, and toxicology relating to water, and the most common and significant sources of infectious diseases caused by microbial contamination. Students explore the types of toxicants present in aquatic systems, their routes of exposure and modes of action, as well as their effects on human health and the environment. Prerequisites: WTTP 2701, WTTP 2711, WTTP 2721, WTTP 2731, WTTP 2741 Note: Students can only get credit for one for WTTP 2800, WTTP 2801
