Professional Diploma in Environmental Health

Description

Environmental health is an important public health discipline. Training and education in this field can shed light on current public health problems, local and regional health issues, future health needs and challenges, the epidemiology of diseases related to environmental exposures; and it can assist legislators with their decisions regarding health policies.

Countries in the EMR suffer from a wide variety of environmental health challenges, ranging from a lack of basic sanitary control measures to a lack of advanced research in this field. Issues exist in the region regarding agricultural health, workplace safety, outdoor and indoor air quality, food safety, water quality, toxic waste, and climate change.

Offering training programs in this field is crucial for the safety of people, the advancement of the economy, and the elevation of the quality of life in the EMR. Such programs contribute to providing stability in war–torn countries.

The Professional Diploma in Environmental Health Program is attested by the Jordanian Ministry of Higher Education.
