The environment we live in has a huge impact on our health. Think about it. Is the air we breathe clean? Is the water contaminated? How will temperature and moisture levels affect the growth of toxic molds? It is for these reasons, along with myriad others, that the Army National Guard needs Environmental Scientists to join our team of Medical Corps Officers. As an Environmental Scientist and an Officer on the U.S. Army Health Care Team, your knowledge of biology, environmental health, and industrial hygiene will help prevent illness and injury.

In so doing, you will increase your knowledge and learn the latest techniques in our collaborative environment. When you practice in your community and serve when needed, you'll enhance your skills by working alongside health care professionals who share your passion for excellence while eliminating the distractions typically found in a civilian practice, such as office management or overhead.
