PhD in Environmental and Occupational Health

Research in environmental and occupational health examines the environmental determinants of disease in the general population and in occupational settings. 

Students in environmental and occupation health will investigate the interaction of such environmental factors with individual facets of disease susceptibility such as genetics, age, and development. Environmental and occupational factors include biological agents, chemicals, and physical impacts. 

The faculty supporting the doctoral degree in Environmental and Occupational Health contribute strengths in children's environmental health, Great Lakes/ freshwater quality, infectious disease, and health in relation to cardiovascular and neurobehavioral disease and disorders.

For students, here is the Graduate Student Handbook.
