Overview

This programme gives students the knowledge and skills to protect workers from injuries and fatalities, prevent illness caused by work, promote health and wellbeing, and advise employers on health and safety law. Students also learn how to prepare, implement and monitor safety management systems in the workplace. Overview This honours degree engages students in a dynamic and innovative way from Year 1 through to Year 4. Students learn how to effectively work with people by working within groups and teams to solve real workplace safety and health issues. The degree gives a blend of theoretical and practical learning through lectures, laboratory based monitoring, site visits, case studies, enquiry based learning and work placement. This degree is essentially applied science rather than the science students may know from secondary school. Occupational safety and health in the workplace covers areas such as chemical safety, occupational health, exposure to noise, dust and gases. The degree provides students with the knowledge and skills to put environmental, health and safety management systems in place in the workplace. This, combined with the fact that our graduates will also be qualified to act as trainers, makes them highly sought after by employers. Students are qualified manual handling trainers and visual display unit assessors when they graduate. This is the longest running Occupational Safety and Health honours degree programme in the country, and our graduates are employed across all sectors. This includes everything from manufacturing to construction and retail to public bodies. Our graduates are qualified to act as a health and safety or environmental health and safety manager in any workplace. Students complete a five-month paid work placement in safety and health in Year 4. They also work on a collaborative project with an industry partner to develop an environmental, health and safety management system and training programme. This practical experience leaves our graduates confident that they can take up a health and safety position in any workplace.
