AP Environmental Science    1 credit

Prerequisite: Honors Chemistry and Algebra II

The AP Environmental Science Course is designed to be the equivalent of a one semester, introductory college course in environmental science. The course is to provide students with the scientific principles, concepts, and methodologies required to understand the interrelationships of the natural world, to identify and analyze environmental problems both natural and human-made, to evaluate the relative risks associated with these problems, and to examine alternative solutions for resolving and/or preventing them. Students will be expected to purchase supplemental materials.
