the course covers all the important details and the lecturers explained it very well. I started from scratch for this course and was not in touch with chemistry and related fields for half a decade.

I recommend it to anyone interested in remediation of contaminated areas, investigation of contaminated sites and remediation techniques in general. The three teachers were able to bring together technical and academic issues in a smooth and fun way (they have a great sense of humor), but without losing the complexity of the focus. It is a course with many current references that can be applied in Brazilian territory. The course dates back to 2016, but remains very current.

Professionally relevant. Lectures had enough bad jokes to be entertaining and keep it interesting. Seems very current with state of practice.

The course has provided me with a very up-to-date panorama of the current knowledge and considerations over the evalutaion and application of Monitored Natural Attenuation as a remdial option for contaminated sites. It has also explained and commented on many key processes that are involved in attenuation processes, about which the knowledge for those who are participating in the management of a contaminated site is mandatory. Other than that, Drs. Alvarez, Newell and Adamson showed a very good grasp over the topics discussed, with even a few funny and entertaining conversations along the lectures. Overall, an amazing course.

I`ve taken around dozen of various courses (on different platforms) on environmental engineering/protection/management but this one is by far most up-to-date and best organized. Ok, as a hydrogeologist that`s what I expected from this topic, but lecturers really made a difference. Disregarding their obvious personal heterogeneity, their common trait is charisma and the energy they brought to the course and consequently shared with everyone.
I will definitely recommend this course to every open-minded person, in my area of expertise.

This course was really very well organized and comprehensive in its content. The lecturers are excellent expertise on the topic and they are very engaging. It is an absolute deal to take this course for those who are looking to advance their career in the area of subsurface pollutant remediation and research.
Thanks

Excellent course, with very pedagogical audiovisual material. I loved the case studies shown in this course. They should change the questions in the quizzes, or at least their order when are repeated. Since one is already predisposed to know the answers when repeating the same quiz several times.

I highly recommend it for a comprehensive understanding of the state of our industry and as proficient remedial investigators and project site managers. I have gained knowledge and confidence through it and I have already begun to apply my newfound understanding of these subsurface interactions.

Very interesting and relevant material. Although the examples were primarily in the US technical and regulatory context, the course was nonetheless very informative. I'd thoroughly recommend it for hydrogeologists, geoenvironmental engineers and environmental consultants.

The course has a good content and lectures are very clear and helpful for the learning process. I really like it. The topic is kind of difficult to me, and obviously I didn't catch all the concepts but it will be helpful to me in the future.

Excellent course. The instructors were knowledgeable and engaging, and the format (short lectures, follow up quizzes, go at your own pace) worked well for my learning style. I hope to take more courses like this one in the future.

Tons of information is what you get from this course. If you are working on or studying groundwater / remediation then you should take this course. Brilliantly done by wonderful staff of GSI and Rice University.
Many thanks to them.

It really is an advance course that requires the learner to have previous knowledge regarding biology, chemistry, physics, geology, and fluid and soil mechanics to be able to follow with the discussions.

Great overview of contaminant hydrogeology. It is focused mainly in hydrocarbons and chlorinated solvents, but the methodologies ara applicable in many other situations.
