MSOH Students

General MSOH/MOH

Master of Science of Occupational Health

The Master of Science of Occupational Health (MSOH) degree prepares students with little or no experience in occupational health for careers in ergonomics, safety, hazardous substance management, industrial hygiene, injury prevention research, and/or program management.  The degree serves as either a terminal degree or as preparation for doctoral education. 

MSOH courses include occupational epidemiology, biostatistics, ergonomics, industrial hygiene, toxicology, and administration and management. The curriculum also includes practice experiences in occupational health settings.

The MSOH degree can be completed in 1.5 to 2 years and requires a research-based Master's thesis or project.

Master of Occupational Health

The Master of Occupational Health (MOH) degree is appropriate for health professionals, such as nurses, physicians, or physical therapists, who seek to start or advance their careers in occupational health. The degree is also appropriate for individuals with at least a Bachelor level education and extensive experience in occupational health.

The MOH degree can be completed in one year and fullfills the core-course requirements to take the American Board of Preventive Medicine's board certification examination.
