Overview

About the program

The Environmental Health Sciences at the University of South Carolina examines the interactions between humans and their environment. Human activities impact on environmental quality and environmental factors, and in turn, are principal determinants of human health.

Exploration of these complex interactions often combines elements of both pure and applied sciences (e.g., biology, chemistry, engineering, public health, medicine).
