Prospective Students
The Department of Environmental Health Sciences prepares its students to work in the field of public health through five tracks of focus: Policy, Molecular Epidemiology, Molecular Toxicology, Global Health, and Medical/Health Physics. Applicants should consider each track’s specific requirements. Prospective doctoral students should visit our DrPH and PhD sites. We accept students who are certain of their professional focus, their track of interest, and of the importance of the education they will receive within the Department.
