Mission
The major goal of our program is to train ethical, board-certified,
occupational physicians who possess the knowledge and skills
necessary to provide occupational and environmental health
professional services in a wide variety of settings, including
academia, public health agencies, corporate occupational
health, and community based clinical occupational medicine.
The knowledge and skills necessary to practice preventive
medicine and occupational medicine are acquired over the
course of a career and lifelong learning skills are emphasized.

medicine, research, education, and the prevention and treatment
of occupational and environmentally induced diseases. The
residency program is funded through a NIOSH Grant at The
NC Occupational Safety and Health Education and Research
Center (NC OSHERC) at the University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill; industry grants; and clinical revenue
