Department of Health & Safety Convergence Science
Department Overview
Recently, alongside the growing interest in health, medical care, and the environment, the demand for specialized personnel regarding public peace of mind and safety is increasing. This department cultivates talent capable of realizing a healthy society by identifying risk factors in the relationship between human diseases and the environment or by preventing the occurrence of diseases in advance. There are three specialized majors: Major in Radiomedical Science, Clinical Laboratory Science, and Environmental Health and Safety. The Radiomedical Science major is suitable for undergraduate graduates of radiology, nuclear-related departments, or physics to acquire more specialized knowledge, and they mainly advance into national research institutes, research-based civil service, or university professorships. The Clinical Laboratory Science major provides undergraduate graduates of clinical pathology, chemistry, or biology with education on diagnostic laboratory science applied to advanced bio-clinics, medical microbiology, cell therapy, stem cells and hematology, and molecular pathology, leading them to careers in hospital research centers, bio-industry research institutes, pharmaceutical research institutes, and academic faculty. The Environmental Health and Safety major provides opportunities for undergraduate graduates of environmental health, environmental engineering, industrial safety, chemistry, and life science-related departments to acquire more specialized knowledge. These graduates primarily advance as national environmental civil servants, environmental and safety managers at large corporations, or as researchers in environmental, health, and safety fields. The most significant feature of our department is that we cultivate experts in environmental radiation, a field for which there are currently no other graduate schools fostering experts. Our department is a cutting-edge convergence department pursuing radiation safety, infectious disease safety, and environmental safety.
Greetings from the Head of the Department
Recently, alongside the growing interest in health, medical care, and the environment, there is an increasing demand for specialized personnel dedicated to public peace of mind and safety. Public health is an extensive academic field that encompasses all disciplines involved in predicting and detecting diseases in advance. Furthermore, identifying risk factors also falls within the scope of public health. Modern risk factors are often determined by very small elements, appearing in the form of fine dust, water, and air pollution, as well as infectious sources like bacteria. In particular, contamination from medical radiation or nuclear materials has recently emerged as a significant harmful factor.
The School of Health and Safety Convergence Science is a converged department where students study radiation safety, infectious disease safety, and environmental safety all at once. Through our three specialized majors, we foster talent capable of realizing a healthy society by identifying risk factors in the relationship between human disease and the environment or by preventing the occurrence of diseases in advance. I hope you will conduct diligent research in the School of Health and Safety Convergence Science to achieve the noble accomplishment of eliminating and preventing harmful factors for humanity.
