Environmental Health (MHS)
专业详情
The Master of Health Science provides a firm academic foundation in the field of environmental health.
The program primarily targets individuals holding a bachelor’s degree who see a place for environmental health in their future academic or career goals. In addition to coursework, MHS students prepare an essay addressing an environmental health problem and make a formal presentation on the topic to an audience of faculty and students.
Some graduates pursue doctoral degrees in public health, medicine, and law, while others head to governmental agencies, NGOs, and the private sector. The program may also accommodate the educational needs of those already working in these sectors who want to develop a stronger knowledge base in environmental health.
In addition to required courses, the MHS program offers electives in the following areas:
- Food Systems, Water, and Environmental Sustainability
- Health Security
