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.
ISHM Board Approved Degree Programs This specialization prepares students in the recognition, evaluation and control of workplace hazards. The curriculum provides a broad academic background in the sciences with emphasis on health applications.
