At the School of Public Health in New Brunswick
The M.P.H. in environmental health sciences offers both a broad and a focused
educational experience. From the core survey course to the specialized
courses on air pollution and occupational health, there are extensive
opportunities for both the specialist and the general student to master
the complex body of knowledge that underlies environmental and
occupational health. The concentration provides
master's-level students with a solid foundation for expanding
professional skills, for career advancement, and for pursuing
doctoral-level training.
The existing courses cover most of the prominent
topical areas of environmental health sciences. In a number of
cases, there are sequences of related courses to assure that students
develop some depth of knowledge in selected areas, while not sacrificing
a generalist's approach to most of the knowledge in their field.
