Environmental Health Program
The Environmental Health Program in the College of Public Health and Health Professions was established in 2007 as an intermediate step towards establishing a department of environmental and global health in the College.
The Environmental Health Program is led by Interim Director, Natalie Freeman, PhD, and includes faculty with expertise in toxicology, chemical risk assessment, exposure assessment, air pollution, veterinary public health, water biology, and molecular biology.
The Environmental Health Program is home to the Environmental Health concentration in the Master of Public Health degree program. In this concentration, MPH students have an opportunity to develop a strong foundation in environmental health sciences and to develop a special focus in one of four critical areas: toxicology/risk assessment, pathogens, food health, or community environmental health.
