Students in the Environmental Health Science (EHS) PhD program will be trained in the fundamental understanding of environmental problems and their consequences on human health and well-being. Core courses will focus on the effects on environmental perturbations on ecosystem and community function and species survival, and toxicological consequences on physiological and cellular processes, as well as genome structure and gene function. Core courses will also include workshops to provide a hands-on introduction to practical analytical tools used in environmental health sciences. During their first year, students will have the opportunity to participate in the research of three faculty labs through lab rotations, leading to the selection of a faculty dissertation advisor.
