Aarhus University in Denmark has launched a new Master’s programme in Animal Welfare Assessment. The target audience is primarily for animal welfare inspectors employed by competent authorities.

“The Master in Animal Welfare Assessment has been established to provide further education for professionals who, directly or indirectly, work with animal welfare in their daily activities. The programme originates from the EU Animal Welfare Strategy (2012-2015), which assesses animal welfare based on animal-based indicators rather than regulatory control of animal housing systems.”

The programme is offered in English. The deadline for applications is 15 November 2025.
