两年制环境健康理学硕士（ScM）适用于希望探索自己进行研究的能力或更精细地定义其主要研究兴趣领域以迈向职业目标的学生。我们高度重视的为期9个月的健康科学硕士课程与学生共享了三个重点领域之一的第一年课程。ScM是一项基于课程和论文的计划，为学生进行第二年的原始研究提供了坚实的知识基础。学生学习的课程以环境卫生的三个主要领域之一为中心，各系教师将重点放在他们的教育和研究工作上。
The ScM is intended for students with a serious interest in pursuing research or field work in environmental health. Often these students have previously worked hands-on in laboratory, field, or population-based investigations and would like to build upon that experience. Following one year of course work, students conduct original research under the direction of a faculty mentor which results in a formal thesis. Graduates of the program are well-prepared to pursue doctoral degree programs and are also competitive for positions in the private sector, federal agencies, and non-governmental organizations.
