This postgraduate certificate offers you a theoretical and practical vision of Environmental Epidemiology and Public Health. Enroll now and advance in your professional career”

The relationship between environmental pollution and human health has been the focus of countless research studies in recent decades. Many of them confirm the direct connection between air or water quality and the appearance of certain diseases. However, until the global pandemic caused by COVID-19, the vast majority of the population was unaware of this reality, which has serious consequences for their health.

In this scenario, environmental epidemiology has become particularly relevant. The studies carried out from this discipline, as well as the techniques and methods used for the detection, prevention and control of diseases have been put in value in the face of possible health problems in the future. For this reason, TECH offers this postgraduate certificate, which allows the graduates in Engineering to advance in a booming field that demands highly qualified professionals.

A program where students can delve into the factors and mechanisms that influence toxicity, public health problems arising from pollution, the effects on humans, as well as risk assessment. All this through multimedia resources (video summaries, detailed videos) and case studies prepared by specialists in this field.

In addition, thanks to the Relearning system, based on the reiteration of content, students will be able to advance much more quickly through the content of this program taught exclusively online.

The engineers have before them an excellent opportunity to progress in their professional career thanks to a university education, which they can study comfortably whenever and wherever they want. You only need a computer, tablet or cell phone with Internet connection to view, at any time, the syllabus hosted on the virtual platform. Students are, therefore, faced with a program designed for people who want a quality program, compatible with their work and/or personal responsibilities.
