DAS Work+Health

Module Overview 2024-2026

Below is an overview of all modules (C1- 11, OM 1 - 5, OH 1-5) listed in chronological order.

A module introduces and trains you in a specific topic of work and health. Each module comprises of preparatory homework called a “pre-assignment”, a campus phase, as well as a concluding exam. Each module is supported by a Module Manager, who is in charge of the module's content, pre-assignment and exam.

Module examination and assessment

To complete a module successfully and to receive ECTS, you have to pass the module's preparatory homework (pre-assignment), participate actively in campus lectures, do all the required readings and/or homework seriously, and pass the exam. 

Registration

Most modules are open for external participants. The modules C1 and C11 can be attended only by students who are enrolled in the entire DAS Work+Health program.  For the current cohort, 2024-2026, there are only some modules still available for enrollment, others are already fully booked.  Please get in touch with Andrea Frederick to find out more.
