Inventory of European Environment and Health Centres

In several centres within Europe, different possibilities and programs for research, education and training in the area of environmental health and environmental epidemiology are being offered. These possibilities range from unstructured informal internships, to full master programs and postdoctoral positions and fellowships. In order to promote education and training in this field and encourage mobility of young researchers, the ISEE Europe Education Sub-committee has created this inventory of European environment and health centres/institutions where people can gain expertise in certain fields of environmental epidemiology.

​ISEE Members are invited to submit information about their Centre by clicking here. PLEASE FIRST CHECK IF INFORMATION DETAILS FOR YOUR CENTRE HAVE ALREADY BEEN PROVIDED.  

Please contact us if you wish to make any changes to the information provided about your centre/institute.
