Public health practitioners and researchers require knowledge of how exposure to environmental and occupational contaminants can adversely affect the health of both current and future generations. Public health professionals also require skills to communicate clearly with multiple stakeholders about opportunities to assess, control, and/or prevent complex environmental health hazards. In this course, students will develop foundational environmental health concepts and build cultural competencies for effective stakeholder communication.
