The program integrates environmental health, geosciences, epidemiology, infectious disease, and disaster sciences to provide advanced training in research, analysis, and applied problem solving. The program is especially relevant to Central Appalachia, where environmental pressures, extreme weather, geological hazards, and public health vulnerabilities create a strong need for interdisciplinary expertise.
