To face the new challenges in the pollution of air, soil and water brought on by environmental change and global warming, our program is designed to equip students with superb abilities in problem analysis and solving of regional and global issues; independent innovative thinking, planning and project execution; decision-making, interdisciplinary coordination, and international communication.

The UST – International Doctoral Program in Environmental Science and Technology (UST-EST) will provide the most advanced graduate study program in interdisciplinary environmental research from the global scale to molecular level. All courses will be taught in English by a team of outstanding scholars with the further distinction of providing an unmatched Chinese-speaking surrounding and learning facilities.

Institute of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences (NYCU)

The Institute of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences was established in 1998, which was originally a division of Environmental Health and Medicine in the Institute of Public Health. The PhD program was later initiated in 2003.

In its prior years, the Institute of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences was one of the subordinate organizations of the School of Medicine, while the Department of Environmental and Occupational Medicine was a part of the Faculty of Medicine. In February 2006, these two units were consolidated to strengthen the faculty members.

Following this, in 2007, the Ministry of Education authorized and renamed the institution as Institute of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences (IEOHS).
