Environmental and Occupational Health, MPH

Return to: School of Public Health

The MPH program in environmental and occupational health provides an opportunity for students interested in environmental and occupational health to become familiar with the relevant concepts as they apply to public health practice. The program provides an opportunity for working health professionals to achieve an in-depth environmental perspective as well as a degree in public health. The degree may be tailored more toward either environmental health science or risk assessment depending on the choice of electives and desire of the student.

Students are required to complete a 200-hour practicum in a public health setting and prepare an essay or thesis. The program typically takes two years to complete.
