Environmental Health Research

1-3 Credits

This research-based course will provide undergraduates with the opportunity to work closely with one of the faculty researchers in the Maryland Institute for Applied Environmental Health (MIAEH) within the School of Public Health. Our research covers multiple fields within the environmental health sciences (e.g. environmental epidemiology, exposure science, risk assessment, environmental microbiology, environmental microbial genomics, food toxicology, airborne infection transmission, environmental justice, and children's environmental health) that involve either laboratory-based research or non-laboratory based studies. Students will not only gain invaluable research and interpersonal skills but also contribute to MIAEH's ongoing environmental health research programs.
