Does anyone know of any programs that offer a PhD in Environmental Health or similar environmental study areas online?? I have searched for countless hours and I only found 1 which is at Antioch University. It doesn't have to be entirely online I can go to the campus a few times a year if need be. Please, I hope someone has some information? Thank you. W.B.
University of South Africa offers (very reasonably priced) research based masters and doctoral programs in Environmental Science and Environmental Management. Best,
Thank you for the info! I've never thought about trying to get a degree from a foreign country... are they legit degrees... if I showed the degree to a potential employer will they laugh at me? Is this degree program accredited by a comparable U.S. accrediting agency... I'm just hesitant at the thought of obtaining it anywhere else than the U.S. because I've never heard of many people doing it I guess.
South African universities are very legit. I just saw my friend, who went to Harvard and was a Mellon Fellow in the Humanities decide between jobs at University Jo-berg and University of Wits. The system is different but they are great universities, akin to Research I in the US. Getting an advanced degree there will require even less hand holding than PhD programs in the US. I work in a Research I.
If you are open to the idea of a non-US degree then you should definitely look at Charles Sturt University, a well known school in Australia: Environmental Science courses at Charles Sturt University (CSU)
