Environmental Health Explorations

The Environmental Health track program connects university researchers and students to promote interest in and preparation for environmental science-related careers. Students will engage in a series of activities, including laboratory experiments and fieldwork, to learn how scientists study different aspects of environmental health. Lectures and discussions with UF scientists will apply the techniques learned to real-world problems researchers a currently tackling.
