Current Program
The Diploma of Advanced Studies (DAS) in Work+Health integrates the specializations of Occupational Medicine (OM) and Occupational Hygiene (OH). The interdisciplinary DAS Work+Health program consists of both common modules and specialization modules. Please select one of these specializations on the basis of your educational and professional background and personal interest.
Program 2024 - 2026
It is no longer possible to apply to the entire DAS for 2024-26, but we are now accepting applications for DAS 2026-28.
Common modules (C1 to C10)
The general topics and practical approaches of work and health are introduced in the common modules. The DAS Work+Health program emphasizes learning from each other and sharing your skills and knowledge with your colleagues through interdisciplinary group work, discussion rounds and case studies. These common modules are part of the DAS W+H full program but the majority can also be taken as single modules. The only ones that cannot be taken as single modules are C1 and C10 - those are only for participants in the entire program.
Common Modules
Specialization modules
In these modules, besides lectures and group work, you may also visit work sites at different companies to deepen your specific knowledge and train practical skills. You will choose a specialization as part of the DAS W+H full program application or as single modules (OH1-5 or OM1-5). If you choose only specialization modules in your single module application, the DAS W+H does not guarantee your certification. For that you need to check with the appropriate association. The specializations of DAS Work+Health are:
Group project (C11)
