麦吉尔环境学院（MSE）旨在建立您对质疑既定规范的信心
The McGill School of Environment (MSE) aims to build your confidence in questioning established norms, your ingenuity and openness to new ideas, and your ability to communicate and contribute effectively in all situations. The MSE brings together a broad spectrum of perspectives, ideas and expertise to tackle some of the most pressing challenges facing our environment and our world. All our programs are intensely interdisciplinary, and our students work side-by-side with colleagues from all fields of inquiry. The Population concentration in this domain is open only to students in the B.Sc.(Ag.Env.Sc.) Major Environment or B.Sc. Major Environment program. This domain considers the interface between the environment and human well-being, with particular focus on the triad that ties human health to the environment through the elements of food and infectious agents. Each of these elements is influenced by planned and unplanned environmental disturbances. For example, agricultural practices shift the balance between beneficial and harmful ingredients of food. Use of insecticides presents dilemmas with regard to the environment, economics, and human health. The distribution of infectious diseases is influenced by the climatic conditions that permit vectors to coexist with humans, by deforestation, by urbanization, and by human interventions ranging from the building of dams to provision of potable water.<br><br>###COVID Alert Message from University – This course is offered online and will continue on campus later.
