Degree Requirements
M.S. Degree
The M.S. program is designed to develop advanced skills,
critical thinking, and a sound understanding of the fundamentals
in the disciplines of Environmental Chemistry, Toxicology,
or Environmental and Occupational Health. The program
prepares students for technical and analytical careers
in the environmental sciences working in the public or
private sectors.
MPH Degree
The MPH program requires 45 to 51 credits, including
6-12 credits of internships, depending on the student's
prior experience in public health or related fields.
For students with a bachelor's degree and no graduate
education or experience in the field, it is expected
that at least two years of full time study will be needed
to complete the program.

Ph.D. Degree
The Ph.D. program in Environmental Health & Toxicology
is designed to prepare students for scholarly and professional
positions and careers in academic institutions, public
agencies, and industry. The program emphasizes the application
of biological, physical, and medical sciences to the solution
of environmental and public-health problems. The objective
of doctoral study is to develop each student's ability
to conduct original, advanced research as an independent
scientist. In keeping with this goal, each student is
expected to guide his or her own research project, under
the supervision of a faculty member, with a high level
of effort and accomplishment, and thereby gain the capacity
to be self-teaching and the ability to design and conduct
research on important issues in the student's chosen field.
The program typically entails four or more years of full-time
study and research beyond the baccalaureate.
