Abstract:
Following the tradition of the 16th International Conference on Chemistry and the Environment (ICCE) in Oslo, Norway (2017), and the subsequent 17th ICCE in Thessaloniki, Greece (2019), a follow-up session on higher education in environmental science was organized at the 18th ICCE in Venice, Italy (June 2023). The aim of the session was to stimulate the exchange of experiences and knowledge on graduate and post-graduate level educational programmes, including their development, prioritization, and implementation. The session discussed the integration of practical training activities, which included the integration of environmental chemistry in various bachelor’s and master’s programmes. The aim was to demonstrate the versatility of environmental chemistry as an interdisciplinary scientific discipline that allows the development of essential green skills for developing sustainable strategies for the environmental experts of tomorrow. Furthermore, during the session, a survey was conducted among the conference participants to collect attitudes and reflections from the audience on the education of environmental chemistry (and related fields).
