借助我们的环境化学，毒理学和风险评估，您将学会检查环境中化学物质的命运和运输，包括健康危害和与化学污染有关的社会影响。您将研究土壤，水和大气系统中污染物的化学，物理和生物反应。您还将学习毒素在环境中的作用以及最先进的调节方法。您将添加环境管理和政策方面的培训，以确保您可以将科学知识与公众和政策制定者进行交流。最后，您将学习如何分析敏感性和暴露信息，以量化与环境污染物相关的风险。
With our Environmental Chemistry, Toxicology, and Risk Assessment concentration you’ll learn to examine the fate and transport of chemicals in the environment, including the health hazards and social impacts associated with chemical pollution. You’ll study the chemical, physical, and biological reactions of pollutants in the soil, water, and atmospheric systems. You’ll also learn the effects of toxins in the environment and cutting-edge methods of regulating them. You’ll add training in environmental management and policy to ensure you can communicate your science to the public and policymakers. Finally, you’ll learn how to analyze sensitivity and exposure information to quantify risks associated with environmental contaminants. O’Neill is a global leader in environmental chemistry, toxicology, and risk assessment education, research and public service. As a graduate, you will be well prepared for a number of roles including environmental consultant, scientist, or data or project manager. You will be poised for professional success in the private, nonprofit, or public sector, at national and international levels, or in the fast-growing and often innovative environment of state and municipal organizations.
