Undergraduate

Occupational Health & Safety

UK University

Overview

Occupational Health & Safety is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Engineering is accredited by a professional institution at most universities, which is what counts later if you want chartered status.
