Program Description:
Toxicology is the study of the adverse effects of chemical, physical or biological agents on people, animals and the environment with the goal of enhancing the overall safety and health of the public. The program prepares students for careers in research, academia, regulatory agencies, and industry. Graduates of the program are trained to develop skills in critical thinking in a student-centric format that develops the skills to interpret basic and applied research to foster lifelong learning.
