Abstract:
We have performed a benchmark exercise evaluating larger academic programs in human environmental health sciences. These programs are located at schools of public health and at other institutions that have NIEHS Centers of Excellence. The largest programs were those in which there was both an NIEHS center and a public health graduate education program. This suggests that there is synergy between environmental health sciences research and involvement in public and community health.
