Environmental Site Assessments

Phase I and Phase II Undergraduate & Graduate Courses

Department of Earth & Atmospheric Sciences, City College of New York

Coordinator: Angelo Lampousis, Ph.D.


Program Background

To stay abreast of employers’ needs and generate opportunities for CCNY’s aspiring environmental professionals, the Department of Earth & Atmospheric Sciences is developing strong collaborations with key industry stakeholders.  These include the CCNY alumni network within the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (Region 2); the ASTM Committee E50 on Environmental Assessment, Risk Management and Corrective Action; and the company Environmental Data Resources of Milford, Connecticut, a leading US provider of environmental risk information.

Learning Objectives

Provide CCNY students a competitive edge by fitting them with the skills their industry is looking for, sparing employers much expensive and time-consuming on-the-job training.  The courses also appeal to non-matriculated students, who are already in the field and find they lack adequate preparation.
