Hi Guys,

I am looking to start a degree in health and safety/ environmental, safety, and health management, or something similar. I would ideally like the environmental title in the degree, as I would like to expand my knowledge base in that area also.

My questions are:

1) Can anyone recommend a good distance learning degree for me. I live in London, so i would still like some sort of access to workshops if required i.e. place places like portsmouth, or brighton etc would be an acceptable distance.

2) What is the rough costings to complete the degree?

3) How long does a degree in this subject take?

Thanks

PS; Please check the university with regards to lenth of course and the costs as I know things have changed since I finished mine in 2009. Then it was about £1444.00 per year if you paid up fron (more if you did not) How long depends on your qualifications etc. Speak to the campus at Avery Hill The School of Artitecture reception who will tell you all you need to know about both the BSc and the MSc courses.
