Radon Awareness & Education Webinar

In partnership with the American Cancer Society's Illinois Lung Cancer Roundtable, UIS Public Health is hosting a radon awareness & education webinar.

The webinar will increase your knowledge of radon, a colorless, odorless, radioactive gas that can be found in buildings. This 45-minute program provides participants with information regarding how to test your home, understand the results of that test and learn how to mitigate radon.

The Illinois Manufacturers’ Association (IMA) and Illinois Manufacturing Excellence Center (IMEC) voiced their support for the University of Illinois Springfield’s new Bachelor of Applied Science in Engineering Technology during an Oct. 5 visit to campus as part of the fifth annual “Makers on the Move” statewide bus tour.

University of Illinois Springfield public health students and alumni earned top honors and presented research at the Illinois Public Health Association’s 85th Annual Public Health Workforce Conference, held Sept. 1-3 in Springfield. Six current Master of Public Health (MPH) students and two alumni were selected through a peer-review process to present at the conference, delivering seven poster presentations and leading two one-hour breakout sessions.
