  • Environmental Health - Within Texas A&M’s Environmental Health specialization, you’ll learn to analyze how our surroundings impact public health and design strategies that lead to tangible community benefits.
  • Epidemiology - Dive into the patterns and causes of diseases and emerge equipped to address global health challenges. Your studies here mean contributing to a worldwide movement that prevents disease and prolongs life.
  • Health Policy and Management - Shape the future of healthcare delivery and policy by harnessing the knowledge to identify and lead healthcare innovations, to make a difference in the quality and efficiency of health services.
  • Health Promotion and Community Health Sciences - Champion health at the community level with our Health Promotion and Community Health Sciences track. This program focuses on strengthening life capacity and building healthier communities.
  • Occupational Safety and Health - Our Occupational and Safety and Health track teaches you to anticipate, evaluate and manage workplace health risks using ergonomics and human factors to promote wellness for future, current and past workers.
