Abstract: | The United States Department of Health and Human Services through Wayne State University (WSU) has completed a study of hazardous waste education and training in the United States. The study documents university course work and degrees as well as non-degree continuing education short courses. Major portions of the study are based on a WSU sponsored survey in which 1469 four-year degree granting institutions were contacted. Of the 732 institutions responding, 113 were identified as offering course work of some kind in hazardous waste. Information on 499 distinct non-degree short courses was also gathered and evaluated. The purpose, methodology and results of the study are summarized in this article. |
