SCCHM2002 Environmental Chemistry
This unit applies chemical principles and concepts to current environmental issues. Students will study the sources, reactions, transport, effects and fate of chemical species in the water, soil and air environments. Casestudies and real-world examples will be used to investigate the influence of human activity upon the air, soil and water environment and the underlying chemistry associated with these problems. The unit will also provide relevant practical introduction to the basic analytical techniques employed for environmental chemical analysis.
Commonwealth supported place (CSP)
A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).
2025 contribution amount* $1,164
2025 grandfathered contribution amount* $1,164
Grandfathered contribution amount - if you are a continuing student, who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
* For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.
