What will you learn? This policy training is meant to support the development of policy input and training of participation on human rights issues, related to Sustainable Chemistry and sustainable development. The training will elaborate on specific human rights (such as the human right to a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment) that are related to the key characteristics of Sustainable Chemistry, as developed by the ISC3. Who is this course for?

About:

The ACS Division of Chemical Health and Safety (CHAS) is offering this 3.5-hour workshop primarily directed at frontline researchers in academic institutions: graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and undergraduate students.

This workshop discusses the challenges of students making the transition to being independent researchers in academia. Topics discussed include: risk assessment of research projects, understanding the often confusing safety hierarchies of academic institutions, and graduate student-led Laboratory Safety Teams.

Workshop goals are to:

The green chemistry certificate provides students with a theoretical and practical working knowledge of the principles of green chemistry and would be an excellent choice for students with an interest in industrial careers. There are two options for earning the certificate, option one requires 18-23 credits, and option two requires 12 credits.

Course Highlights: 

A Certificate in Green Chemistry will be a strong curricular addition to the degrees offered at Grand Valley State University. This 13-14 credit hour Certificate in Green Chemistry provides students at Grand Valley State University with a foundational knowledge of green, benign chemistry and its principles. This certificate can be completed in one calendar year, if all prerequisites were completed previously.

This 3-course program from the University of Washington is intended to give graduates the tools to make a difference and find success by learning to design safer chemicals and industrial processes.
