Students in the Environmental Health Science minor study how biological, chemical, and physical agents - either those occurring naturally or introduced into the environment - affect human health and the environment. Coursework in the field can provide a strong foundation for students seeking advanced degrees and careers not only in environmental health science, but industrial hygiene, toxicology, public health, epidemiology, ecology, and environmental engineering.
