The Graduate Certificate in Environmental Health is designed for students in other MPH or MSPH programs at Tulane SPHTM who wish a second area of study focusing on the relationship between the environment and public health. For example, an epidemiology major may have an interest in applying epidemiologic principles to the study and management of environmental risk factors of disease; a community health sciences major might plan to work on health problems related to the built environment; a global health systems and development major may plans to work overseas and want experience in environmental health; and an infectious disease or tropical medicine major might address the environmental influences on infectious and tropical diseases, such as the impact of climate change on vector control. Environmental health impacts nearly all areas of public health and this certificate will provide students with that additional applied knowledge that will be useful in their future careers.

Some geographical limitations for recruitment might be applied. Please contact Unibroad Team for further information.
