As we enter the 21st century, concern for the health and safety of the worker, as well as for the preservation of our natural environment has never been greater. Progressive organizations have demonstrated that while strong environmental health and safety programs require a commitment of considerable dollars, in the long run this commitment saves money, maximizes profits, prevents injuries, saves lives, and preserves our natural resources. Therefore, the demand for qualified environmental health and safety personnel should continue well into the next century. The UMD Master of Environmental Health & Safety program has a time honored reputation for preparing highly qualified graduates for these most rewarding fields of endeavor.

The Master of Environmental Health and Safety Program is an advanced degree offered through the UMD Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering. The Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering also offers a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, and a Master of Science in Engineering Management.
