Dr. Rittmann regularly teaches CEE 565, Advanced Environmental Biotechnology. This course is for graduate students interested in understanding and using microbial communities to provide sustainability services to society. The course features in-class discussion of readings on contemporary topics in environmental biotechnology. Students also conduct a term project that explores the foundation and application of a timely subject in environmental biotechnology. Some past class projects have led to published papers and funded research proposals.
