General Information

 

The Karadeniz Technical University takes its name from the Black Sea, which is well known with its unique ecosystem and rich fisheries resources. However, interest in the marine sciences and fisheries at the University dates back to the early 1980s when the Higher Education School of Marine Science and Technology was founded officially in 1982. However, education and other activities started in 1984 with two academic departments, named as Marine Sciences and Marine Technology. Two year later they were combined as Fisheries Technology Engineering. The name of the Higher School changed as the Faculty of Marine Sciences in 1991 and moved to current campus in S¨¹rmene, Trabzon.

 

The students who have completed the department with a grade above average may apply for postgraduate studies in a variety of fields in the department. The Department offers undergraduate and graduate (Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy) degrees in Fisheries Science that provides students with a curriculum that encompasses biology, mathematics, computer science, ecology, oceanography, fisheries biology and management, aquaculture, fish diseases, post harvest technology and other contemporary educational needs for future fisheries professionals. The Department of Fisheries Technology Engineering is committed to addressing the educational and research needs to ensure sustainable management of the diverse fisheries resources. The department has sufficient lab facilities to lead such kind of research, and also has strong contacts with universities abroad. The major facilities include a chemistry, microbiology (bacteriology, virology and parasitology), molecular biology, fish processing, aquatic toxicology, aquatic ecology, and computer laboratories,?GIS, fishing net reparation, aquaculture research units and research vessels (R/V DENAR-1, 25 m and YAKAMOZ, 9 m).

 

The curriculum prepares students for careers in fisheries professions within private or state fisheries sectors, and ensures that, upon graduation, students are eligible for employment or post-graduate study. Additionally, the Department maintains a nationally and internationally recognized research program that addresses all aspects of fisheries and aquatic sciences.

Objectives of the Course

This course has been designed to address aquatic pollution from a viewpoint of environmental toxicology. Based on the physical and chemical characteristics of water and pollutants, the course will explore the aquatic dynamics, toxicity and microbial transformation of contaminants, their impact on the ecosystem, and the issue of water quality management from aquaculturist perspectives.

Contents of the Course

Major classes of pollutants (inorganics, organics, radiation)  

The most common aquatic contaminants - aquatic contaminants classification, effects of contaminants on aquatic biota, physiological effects at the organism level and effects at the population levels, comparison between effects of the pollutants at population level and effects between overexploitation and contaminants at population and community levels.

Routes by which pollutants enter the aquatic ecosystems.?

Determination of toxicity: toxicity testing.?trials and tribulations?

Toxicity assessment: end points in toxicity (acute versus chronic; lethal vs physiological)?

Behavioral responses to toxicants  

Physiological responses to toxicants?

Factors affecting toxicity & mixtures

Chronic and early life cycle tests,

Fate of chemicals in the organism

Toxicokinetics and Toxicodynamics
