Industrial Hygiene

Thanks to the faculty, staff, and curriculum at RMCOEH, I entered into the workforce prepared, knowledgeable, and confident in my skills and knowledge around industrial hygiene. Perhaps the greatest asset I took from RMCOEH was that, if I did not know or learn something there, I could gather information from reliable resources on my own to figure out answers.
