There are a number of courses offered in the Faculty of Environmental Studies of an integrative nature which extend across the academic interests of the four units, School of Architecture, Department of Geography, Department of Man-Environment Studies, and School of Urban and Regional Planning.
The courses are of general interest and are open to
all students in the University. There is no Department of Environmental Studies.

Not available to Man-Environment Students
3 hours, Fall and Winter terms
Note Students in the Faculty of Environmental Studies may take this course in their first or second year only.
To introduce the main concepts and principles of ecology as a basis for understanding cycling of elements, energetics and structural organization of major ecological systems; population dynamics; impact of natural resource management practices and urban and industrial development on the environment; incorporating environmental quality considerations into development activities; “designing with nature”. Prerequisite 2nd, 3rd and 4th year students only
2 hours lecture, 2 hours lab, Fall and Winter terms
An introduction to particular media and formats appropriate to the presentation of themes and issues of concern to environmentalists. Class activities will focus on the use of audio-slide, film and television presentations. Students will be expected to commit some of their own time to the use of equipment and the preparation of presentation formats. Students may be required to purchase certain materials. Prerequisite: E.S. students only or consent of Instructor | Coordinators
3 hours. Fall and Winter terms
A more in-depth approach to the use of the media and formats used in ES 252. There will be more emphasis on a participatory approach in the utilization of equipment and the preparation of software. Students will be expected to commit some of their own time to the use of equipment and preparation of presentation formats. Students may be required to purchase certain materials.
Prerequisite: ES 252 or consent of instructor
3 hours, Winter term
in their respective fields, discuss specific problem areas related to the environment. Representative topics include impact on groundwater of waste disposal, effect of air pollution on plant life, population problems, viruses in surface water, reutilization of waste materials.
No prerequisite
3 hours, Fall and Winter terms
An interdisciplinary workshop focusing upon environmental issues in a project or research format. Prerequisite: 3rd and 4th year students in Environmental Studies; enrolment is by research team only with representatives from at least 3 units of the faculty (max. 7 people) and subject to selection of an advisor and a satisfactory project or research proposal.
Conflict as the core of all aspects of environmental relationships. A review of several current conflicts in; community planning law; ecological law; and natural resource law. We will isolate and define the legal tools available to the interests involved in such conflicts, and seek to understand both the effect and the limits of these tools under current legislation and practice. Prerequisite: 3rd and 4th year students

' Course Descriptions
School of Architecture
Design
The courses in design studio combine design fundamentals and design concepts, along with the opportunity to involve analysis and synthesis, professional and scientific insights, application of tools and methods for designing artifacts for man, and an awareness of the inherent physical characteristics and limitations of media and materials. The objectives of the studio are: (1) to guide the student in observing aspects of the physical and social environment; to find, categorize and associate the information into fundamental structures and patterns of relationships; (2) to apply theories generated in the lecture courses to situations in the physical environment, implementing by categorizing the courses into behaviour of materials, structures and mechanical systems, behaviour of man, and communications; (3) to provide the student with an opportunity to develop skill in using different “techniques” for analyzing and synthesizing problems in the physical environment; (4) to establish a relationship between faculty and students where all faculty members are consultants to the students; (5) to provide a vehicle for persons from faculties of different disciplines and from outside of the university to discuss with students their problems and projects from different points of view.
These courses are open only to students enrolled in the School of Architecture.
