Toxicology focuses on studying how chemicals can negatively impact human health and ecosystems. This multidisciplinary science combines biology, chemistry, medicine, and physiology to enhance global safety.
With more than five decades of experience, St. John's University pioneered the first undergraduate toxicology program, effectively preparing graduates for rewarding careers.
Our four-year Toxicology degree at St. John's merges chemical and biological sciences with specialized toxicology training. The program grants an automatic chemistry minor and equips students for careers in research, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, environmental protection, and beyond. Beyond core scientific principles, students develop vital communication and critical thinking abilities to apply their toxicology knowledge toward protecting communities and natural environments.
