MT02017: Geographical Information System in Environmental Studies
|
The course is designed toward learn-by-doing aspect. Students will take 1-credit theory classes and the other on-computer exercises. The theory classes cover subjects on GIS data and structures, spatial analysis operations and GIS applications on environmental studies. The on-computer exercises are made very practical for students to demonstrate what can be translated from theory to reality and what GIS tools are capable of solving certain environmental issues.

MT03061: Modeling in Environmental Management
|
The course addresses the general introduction and major steps in the development of environmental models, and how they are used for decision-making, with a particular emphasis on air pollution, water quality and land use change. Topics to be covered include basic concepts of modelling, model development methods, model calibration, model validation and scenario analysis. These topics will be applied specifically to the air pollution dispersion, river water quality dynamics and land use change analysis.

MT03077: Spatial Analysis For Environmetal Studies
|
This is an advanced course on spatial analysis/geostatistics that is tailor-made specifically for environmental studies. The course focusses on geo-technics to develop methods/tools for better approach in monitoring, sampling and assessing environmental quality, such as air-quality (pollution spread), soil quality (soil properties) and water quality. Students are expected to learn how to use GIS environmental software to tackle.
