Division of Environmental Health Engineering (DEHE) Division Director divisional Office The mission of the Division of Environmental Health Engineering (DEHE) is to improve public health through interdisciplinary research, professional training and practice. Divisional researchers seek to prevent or minimize the adverse effects of physical, chemical, and biological agents by identifying and studying their sources, fate, and transport in both occupational and non-occupational environments, and by developing and evaluating control strategies that effectively protect human health. Exposure assessment is an integrating theme for the division because of its critical linkage to risk assessment. Divisional research and training in exposure assessment employs principles and methods in chemistry, biology, physics and mathematical modeling, and includes development and evaluation of biomarkers of exposure. Researchers study all potential routes of human exposure with particular emphasis on air and water. The Division offers the following programs:
Our activities are supported by a number of education and research centers:
