Suggested Schedule

On this page, you will find a suggested four-year couse schedule for students who plan to earn a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Health. Prospective students usually complete prerequisite courses during their first and second years. Once admitted to the major, students are generally able to complete major requirements by spring quarter of their fourth year. This time table usually requires students to register for 15-17 credits each quarter.

Please note: the schedule below only includes coursework relevant to the Environmental Health major. It does not include General Education requirements or general electives. Please visit a general adviser or the Program Manager in Environmental Health for more information.

Green courses are EH prerequisites. These courses must be completed before entering the major.

Blue courses are suggested for students wishing to prepare for medical school. These classes are not required to complete the major.

Red courses are required to satisfy all the EH major requirements.
