Are you interested in researching solutions to environmental hazards created by climate change, controlling air pollution, or safeguarding the nation's food supply? Our degree in environmental health will prepare you for a career in one of the most rapidly expanding areas of public health. Whether you plan to pursue a graduate degree or enter the workforce, you will be equipped to move forward in an evolving field.
You'll study the five core areas essential to public health professionals—environmental health, epidemiology, biostatistics, public health administration, and community health. At the same time, you will take specialized courses in areas such as toxicology, environmental sampling, environmental management and policy, and occupational safety that deepen your expertise. When you graduate, you'll have the tools to uncover, understand, and limit the effects of hazardous agents on individuals and communities.
Research opportunities are available to qualified undergraduates, as are overseas learning experiences supervised by our faculty. Once your course work is complete, you will apply your knowledge through a required internship.
When you are ready to explore your career interests, you will have access to the Office of Career Services. Our career coaches will work with you to develop a personalized plan for your future.
