Our interdisciplinary center brings together researchers, educators, students, and community partners to tackle some of the most complex and pressing environmental health challenges we face. With a deep understanding of the interconnectedness of our environment to all living things, EHSC members address issues ranging from air and water pollution to chemical exposures, climate change, and emerging environmental threats. From infectious disease to disaster response, our center searches for solutions to make our environment healthier and more habitable for everyone.

Whether you're a student seeking to expand your knowledge, a scientist looking for collaboration, or a concerned citizen interested in making a positive impact, explore our website to find research, resources, and opportunities to work with us.
