Abstract: | The changes of the environment after industrialization since 1965 influenced some political decisions concerning a critical evaluation of such development which may injure the environment. The School of Veterinary Medicine Hannover discussed in that time how the problems could be met by establishing a postgraduate stadium of environmental sciences. These ideas were realized, starting with seminars in the first year for one week, later for one or two days periods (Table). Postgraduate students and interested veterinarians with questions arising from their occupation participated in the seminars. The main topics of the seminars referred to effects of chemical, physical and biological influences from the environment upon farm animals and vice versa that part of animal housing which is involved in the harmful changes of the environment. |
