Students,
Environmental Public Health Graduate Degrees Information Session
Thursday, Oct. 20 from 4-5PM via Zoom
The Department of Environmental & Occupational Health Sciences (DEOHS) with the School of Public Health at the University of Washington investigates how environmental and workplace factors affect people’s health. Our faculty and students work across disciplines, sectors and borders to address some of today’s most urgent health challenges—from preventing on-the-job injuries and illnesses to investigating the health impacts of air pollution and climate change. Students and faculty in DEOHS are also actively engaged in COVID-19 research and service activities to help protect workers and build resilient communities during the global pandemic.

Our department offers four graduate degree options. Students in the MS, MS Applied and PhD degree programs then choose from one of six “areas of emphasis.” These optional learning tracks allow you to gain specialized disciplinary training—or you can create your own customized degree pathway.

Hello UW Students!
I’ll be visiting UW campus for general information sessions about taking courses at Friday Harbor Laboratories onWednesday, October 19th at 3:30pm AND Thursday, October 20th at 11:30am and 2:00pm in FSH 207!

  • Zoology Botany Program – Earn 16 credits towards your degree learning the fundamentals in Zoology and Botany while conducting your own research project! Earn Integrative Field Experience credit for MarBio majors.
Please pass along to anyone you think may be interested and direct all questions to me. See you then!
