2021 [7th] Online teleconference seminar 2021: International Environmental and Occupational Health Program (Posted on Dec. 17, 2021)

From September 28 to December 14, this year’s teleconference seminar: International Environmental and Occupational Health Program was held online.

 

UOEH participated in 12 lectures through this year’s series of teleconference seminar while connecting with 4 other international sites: National Taiwan University (main site), Universiti Brunei Darussalam, Khon Kaen University (Thailand) and Singapore National University during each session. Lecturers from each site provided lectures primarily on occupational and environmental health from international perspectives. This year, from the viewpoint of infection prevention for Covid-19, we made it possible to listen to the lectures on their personal devices, and accordingly got more people participated.
