Develop your skills and knowledge to kickstart your career as an environmental health practitioner. Our MSc in Environmental Health meets the academic requirements for becoming a graduate Environmental Health Officer, empowering you to start your professional journey immediately after graduation.

The Environmental Health program educates students about the intersection of human health and the environment, specifically, the analysis, prevention, and mitigation of potential environmental hazards that could be biological, chemical or physical.

To provide students with the knowledge and skills to conduct independent research through advanced scientific problem-solving skills, and the application of critical and reflective thinking in the field of Environmental Health.

The purpose of this qualification is to provide qualifying students with analytical specific problem solving and reflective competencies at an advanced academic level culminating in the production of a thesis in the field of Environmental Health.

This inter-university bachelor’s degree in the Biology of Human and Environmental Health program, in conjunction with the University of Padua and the University of Bologna, adopts an advanced, innovative, multidisciplinary approach to life science research and the interaction between human health and the environment. The first two years cover general biologic principles, human anatomy and physiology, disease mechanisms, and advanced methods in biomedical research. In the third year, students can choose to enrol in one of the two curricula: biological bases of human diseases (Padua) or environmental influences on human health (Bologna).

The purpose of the BEH programme is to produce graduates who have a systematic and coherent body of knowledge to apply principles and practices of Environmental Health; the ability to access and evaluate scientific information and have a high level of analytical, cognitive and generic skills; To provide graduates opportunities for continued personal intellectual growth, advancing with postgraduate study, contributing to the social upliftment of society constructively.

Acquire a foundation in the managerial aspects of developing and implementing environmental health and safety management systems to help companies meet their sustainability and safety standards.

The Master's course in Environment and Health aims to train professionals with skills to assess and understand the fundamental interrelationships between the natural and humanized environment and health, providing future Masters with knowledge and skills to: define priorities in the area of environmental health; critically discuss the principles of analysis for decision making and their application to the integrated assessment of environmental and health risk; to consolidate knowledge and experience in environmental health management and prevention; and mobilize knowledge that enables integration in research and professional activities in the subject of environment and health.

The Bachelor of Science in Occupational Safety, Health, and Environment (OSH&E) degree program is designed to provide an academically comprehensive curriculum that prepares graduates with the ability and competency to become highly qualified safety, industrial hygiene, and environmental professionals.

The Graduate Program in Environment Protection Engineering aims at research and engineering activities concerning the mitigating of negative impacts of human activity on the environment. It is primarily addressed to the alumni of the undergraduate program in environmental engineering or other undergraduate programs in engineering, such as civil, mechanical, or chemical engineering.

We offer a Master's course in Process Engineering, Environmental Protection for international students. The program provides knowledge on modern technologies of water treatment, wastewater treatment, waste management and utilization. Graduate is able to solve problems related to planning, designing and control of technological processes, supervision and operation of installations for water and wastewater treatment as well as disposal and management of municipal and industrial wastes, independently or in an international team. Graduate knows and applies advanced research techniques and tools as well as analytical and simulation methods.

The field of planetary health is an emerging one and is necessary for tackling many of the major contemporary challenges we experience in the world today, such as climate, pollution, and biodiversity crises. The concept of planetary health recognizes the reliance of human populations on healthy ecosystems, including the highly complex socio-ecological feedback mechanisms involved in interactions between humans and nature.

This Master's is designed to provide the development of the skills required for a Master in One Health in a student-centered learning environment, adapted and supported by digital tools, in line with the European Union Digital Education Action Plan 2021-2027.

Pests make environments unhygienic and are a major cause of diseases, some of which may be lethal and difficult or expensive to cure. Effective pest management and control are necessary to keep a living and working environment free from health hazards. This course provides the knowledge and skills required to establish and maintain a successful pest control management programme and describes various pests, their life cycles and their behaviour.

In MSc Global Conservation Biology, the world’s habitats are undergoing rapid transformation. The impacts of climate change are causing species extinction at an unprecedented rate. Conservation biology as a discipline looks at the science behind these changes – including the identification of ecosystems at risk, ways of conserving biodiversity, and the role of genetics and demography.
