Introduction

Course Overview A degree in Environmental Health at Cardiff Metropolitan University provides an opportunity to study for five potential career opportunities within one discipline area. Environmental Health includes occupational health, safety and wellbeing, environmental protection, housing, food safety and public health. If you want to be a highly regarded professional in a career that will enable you to play an important role within society, then Environmental Health at Cardiff Metropolitan University is the programme for you. Learning & Teaching A variety of learning and teaching methods are used, such as lectures, seminars, visits, practical sessions, problem-based learning, case studies and role-play exercises. All teaching is supported by the Moodle virtual learning environment, which helps students to access information when it is needed. Notes, reading and discussion boards are used to support student learning. Through the degree programme, contact time varies. On average, direct face to face contact time in taught sessions is approximately 18 hours a week. This should be supported by a similar number of hours of self-study time. A personal tutor scheme supports students with academic and pastoral support from the first year onwards and encourages students to set and achieve their academic and career goals through all years of the programme. Teaching staff are all actively engaged with the Higher Education Academy with a number of members of staff receiving awards and recognition for their innovative teaching practice.
