Environmental Science Program

Environmental Science Bachelor of Science - Industrial Hygiene

Our application for the Safety programs at both the BS and MS levels have been reviewed and approved by the Institute for Safety & Health Management ( ISHM). Graduates from these programs can now apply immediately after graduation for the Associate Safety & Health Manager (ASHM) designation and with 2 years experience, in the Safety and health management fields, they can apply to take the CSHM exam. This is a 3-yr reduction to the normal waiting period.
