HSAT Degree Options

 

Master of Public Health

The HSAT curriculum provides a comprehensive and solid grounding in the principles and practice of occupational safety and health for professionals in or entering the hazardous substance work force. This program in the Department of Environmental Health Sciences, provides both technical and non-technical skills that respond to the trainees' background and interests:

The two-year M.P.H. program provides a dual specialty in Industrial Hygiene and Hazardous Substances. The IH-HSAT option provides more comprehensive treatment of environmental health issues, including in-depth treatment of environmental chemistry, impact assessment, risk assessment and sampling, and the completion of a field experience.

Students also must complete 40 hour HAZWOPER training (Hazardous Materials Incident Response Operations for 29 CFR 1910.120) at EPA's facility in Cincinnati or elsewhere. The program provides competencies in IH and students are expected to obtain professional certification in this area.

In addition to the residential program, students may wish to consider the On Job/On Campus Executive Education Program.
