In a world where global transport links allow rapid movement of people and animals, disease can spread more quickly than before and is harder to control than ever. In such a world there is a growing need for trained epidemiologists at the front line of disease surveillance.

The main goal of the educational program is the development of doctoral students in the issues of modern diagnostic research, veterinary and sanitary measures, preventing the introduction of especially dangerous and exotic diseases from abroad.

Broad-based, in-depth theoretical and practical training with emphasis on the skills required to capture, transport and manage free-ranging and captive animals with due consideration of conservation ecology, the interaction of wildlife and domestic animals and the control of diseases of wildlife.
