<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="color:black">I am an associate professor at Boston University School of Public Health and a graduate of MIT (PhD, Biological Oceanography, 1998). We have a new Master
of Science program in Environmental Health Data Analytics (<a href="http://www.bu.edu/sph/education/degrees-and-programs/ma-ms-programs/ms-eh-data/">http://www.bu.edu/sph/education/degrees-and-programs/ma-ms-programs/ms-eh-data/</a>), of which I am the director.
This is a relaunch of our MS program with a focus on a unique skill set in environmental data analysis and management strategies, with full-time degree completion in less than 12 months. These skills are highly desirable in environmental consulting firms,
environmental NGOs and in government agencies, and could also position students for doctoral training. We are reaching out to potential applicants, and students in Biology with an interest in environmental health applications would seem potentially interested.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
