Exposure assessment science plays a critical role in risk assessment, epidemiology, and environmental public health interventions. This course provides an overview of the principles of exposure science and an examination of how these principles are applied to characterize the hazards of chemical and physical disease agents in both occupational and community environments. The course is divided into four modules: exposure pathway analysis, exposure data analysis, biological markers of exposure, and the energetics of physical agents and injuries.
