The air surrounding us, the water we consume, the nourishment we ingest, and our living, working, and recreational environments all profoundly influence our health and quality of life. By pairing the Environmental Health major with Environmental Futures in a Bachelor of Science degree, you'll gain the tools to tackle various natural and urban environmental issues. These range from reducing health effects caused by climate change to addressing localized concerns like air and water purity, waste handling, food availability, noise pollution, and community wellness. Key study topics encompass atmospheric contamination; community research; disaster preparedness; environmental laws and governance; ecological surveillance; land-use planning; ecosystem preservation; disease patterns; food hygiene; sound pollution; workplace environments; hazard evaluation; sustainable resource stewardship; poison studies; city growth; and aquatic contamination.
