Welcome from our Head of Department, Dr Shaun Ramroop

Congratulations on choosing Environmental Health as your field of study. The Department of Environmental Health is committed to the success of our students and serves as an advocate and resource for Environmental Health in the Eastern Cape Province. We will, therefore, always be there with you through your academic journey by providing the best possible educational support with our available resources. The Environmental Health team will challenge you academically and personally to become the best version of yourself and eventually transform you into a “Mandela Environmental Health Practitioner” during your years with us. We look forward to a mutually beneficial relationship with you. Congratulations on being part of our dynamic team, and we wish you a happy and blessed journey with us.
