Mitigating harm with practice and policy

We offer two degrees in the environmental health sciences. The Master of Science (MS) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) are both designed to provide a broad theoretical and practical education for positions in academia, industry, or government. Multiple tracks help you acquire advanced training in  molecular and cellular biology, toxicology, environmental epidemiology, exposome, epigenetics, gene-environment interaction, risk assessment, as well as environmental justice.

Our professional degree programs, Master of Public Health (MPH) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) with Concentration in Public Health Practice (PhD PHP), provide concentrations in environmental health and apply these concepts to public health practice.
