Georgia State's Master of Public Health (MPH) program, specializing in Environmental Health, equips students for careers researching and addressing environmental influences on community wellbeing, including biological, physical, and chemical factors.
This field examines health impacts from environmental elements across all scales - from molecular to ecological - encompassing both natural and built environments. By evaluating external physical, chemical, and biological influences along with associated behavioral factors, environmental health professionals work to mitigate risks, prevent illness, and foster healthier living conditions.
The curriculum covers fundamental environmental health topics like exposure assessment, toxicology, risk evaluation, and pollution control, while providing opportunities to focus on specific areas such as food safety, workplace health, disease prevention, environmental epidemiology, and urban health challenges.
