The Center for Occupational Health and Safety Engineering (COHSE) promotes a multi-disciplinary educational experience through common courses, seminars, and professional projects. The multi-disciplinary theme extends to research activities on which faculty and students from all programs collaborate. 

The Center for Occupational Health and Safety Engineering receives student funding support from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.

All students who are U.S. Citizens or Permanent Residents and are admitted to a graduate degree program in Industrial Hygiene, Occupational Epidemiology, Occupational Health Nursing and Occupational Safety Engineering are automatically considered for funding. Funding may include partial to full tuition award, travel and a monthly stipend. No additional application is necessary.
