InterRisk is a new international Master's programme which trains future risk managers using active pedagogical methods; combining lectures and real cases problem-solving, field visits (such as biosecurity audits on livestock farms), laboratory experiments (for disease diagnostics) and innovative computer-based tools, which provide genuine practical experience.
Courses are currently running in suitable facilities at the University of Kasetsart, Bangkok, Thailand. This offers students the unique opportunity to be trained 'in situ' in South East Asia. Six diseases (rabies, Japanese encephalitis, leptospirosis, cysticercosis, antibiotic resistance and influenza) are used as examples in each module in order to study them extensively from different perspectives. This helps students to make the link between the different methods and the tools that they are learning, and to develop an holistic understanding of how health risks can be managed.
The InterRisk program allows students to join international and cross-sectorial networks of professionals involved in One Health approaches. With this solid background, students can access a wide range of career opportunities in the field of public and animal health, as well as in ecology or the environmental sector. Some InterRisk degree recipients may engage in academic or research through Ph.D. programmes.
