Course Description

In the Macaulay Honors College Seminar III students gain fundamental scientific and technological knowledge while exploring the manifestations of this knowledge in New York City. The majority of the discussions will be realized in the context of the standardization process as performed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in general and the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) in particular. Soon after the introductory lectures students will assume the role of a New York-based environmental professional (EP). As EPs, students will conduct a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment of a real property in New York City, as prescribed by ASTM standard E1527 – 05 Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments.
