Course Goal / Objective

In this course, the place and importance of ecotoxicology in modern environmental sciences will be discussed and the latest applications in environmental chemistry, toxicology and ecology will be examined in detail.

Course Content

The direct and indirect effects of environmental chemicals, especially environmental pollution caused by agricultural practices, will be explained from the individual to the ecosystem and as a result, molecular mechanisms of action will be determined. In addition, the relationships between various organisms and their habitats will be discussed in this course.
