Two Electives Begin
Yesterday a new three week module in the Coastal and Marine Management program began with two elective courses: Climate Changes and Policy and Chemistry and Contamination in the Coastal Zone.
The Climate Changes course is taught by three instructors, Dr. Helgi Jensson, a senior consultant at the Environment Agency of Iceland, Auður H. Ingólfsdóttir, a specialist at Bifröst University who has previously taught here at the University Centre, and Dagný Arnarsdóttir the Academic Director of the CMM program. The chemistry course is taught by Dr. Hrönn Jörundsdóttir, project manager at Matís (Icelandic Food and Biotech R&D). Hrönn graduated with a PhD in environmental chemistry from Stockholm University, her research areas include Distribution of Traditional and Emerging Organic Pollutants in the North- Atlantic, Dioxins and PCBs in Greenland Shark, and organochlorine compounds and their metabolites in Icelandic bird species.
