Requirements

Before you can be admitted to this course you need to have a secondary school certificate and a minimum of two years of higher education in a similar field of expertise.

The semester is taught in English. Applicants need an IELTS academic level of 6,0 or higher. Please check the general entry requirements, including other accepted languages tests and proofs.

This semester should not be regarded as training for operational emergency activities. E.g. we do not train you how to fight a fire or how to carry out first aid. Career prospect can be found however on the strategic level, e.g. as:

  • health, safety and environment (HSE) manager within a (large) company;
  • policy maker at a governmental organisation involved in preparation for emergencies;
  • strategic coordinator at an emergency service involved in emergency preparation and response.
