Graduate
Diploma in Environmental Toxicology:
(operated by Chulabhorn
Graduate Institute)
The
Chulabhorn Research Institute offers a diploma in Environmental
Toxicology specifically designed to accommodate both
students who wish to study full time and those who wish
to take the course on a part-time basis. Students who
attend part-time must provide evidence that their employers
endorse their participation in the program. Courses
are taught in modular form, with each module lasting
between 2-8 weeks. Credits are earned cumulatively over
a period of up to 4 years, by which time students must
have completed all course requirements. A qualifying
examination will be administered as the final requirement
for completion of the program.
Diplomas will not be awarded until all course work requirements
have been successfully completed and students have passed
their qualifying examination.
This
program should be useful for government officials, both
local and from overseas, who find that their current
positions require them to develop additional expertise
in environmental toxicology.
