Metals are used in almost every aspect of modern society, from transport to energy, housing to healthcare, food to technology. Innovation continues apace to develop ever more useful metal-containing materials for wider and more specialised applications, like for new energy technologies (eg. solar cells, batteries, wind generation, etc) and to produce complex electronic devices and networks.

This course is focused on the properties and approaches that are key for the appropriate assessment and management of risks associated with metals. The course will help you develop an understanding of the properties of metals and the impact of their toxicity on humans and the environment.
