Environmental Health and Risk Management

The Division of Environmental Health and Risk Management (DEHRM) is based in the well-equipped, purpose-built facilities of the University's Public Health Building.

Their research attracts extensive funding from many sources, including: the Department of Transport; the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs; the Environment Agency; the Department of Health; the Food Standards Agency; the NERC; the EPSRC; the BBSRC; the Leverhulme Trust; and European programmes. The collaborative nature of much of this work, together with the mix of pure, strategic and applied research, often involving interdisciplinary teams spanning physical, biological, chemical, medical and social sciences, provides a dynamic and internationally recognised research environment.

Tuition fees and costs

The University charges an annual tuition fee. This covers the cost of your tuition, examination and graduation, and includes membership of the Guild of Students. Fees are payable at the start of your programme.

When you accept the offer of a place, you are also accepting responsibility for the payment of your tuition fees, even if you are sponsored or in receipt of an award and the sponsor fails to pay.
