First Degree
Occupational Health & Safety
In a world where the pace of work is dictated by machines and decision-making, Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) is no longer merely a legal obligation but plays a strategic role within organisations.
The ISCIA OHS Degree has been designed to train professionals capable of anticipating risks, protecting people and creating safer, more sustainable and more efficient working environments. It is about more than just complying with regulations; it is about creating cultures of prevention – where every decision counts and every detail can make a difference.
With a curriculum aligned with national and European legal frameworks, this course prepares students to operate in an increasingly demanding and constantly evolving market, fostering technical and strategic skills in safety, quality and environmental management.
Throughout the programme, students also have the opportunity to develop skills highly valued by the sector, including internal auditing, in collaboration with leading certification bodies.
For those seeking a field with real impact, growing responsibility and relevance across all sectors of activity, OSH is more than just a choice – it is a commitment to the future of work!
