Toxicology, as a multidisciplinary field, provides career opportunities for graduates with medical (human or veterinarian), pharmacological, pharmaceutical, biological, microbiological, molecular biological, chemical, biochemical, genetic or other backgrounds. However, in today's environment specialists with a university degree in toxicology or a postgraduate training in toxicology have a clear advantage. Postgraduate diplomas are now available in most industrial countries. In addition, to be successful, modern toxicologists in the private sector also need a good understanding of how to turn a scientific project into a successful product, an expertise generally acquired by on-the-job training. Last, but not least, the rapid progress in essentially all toxicology-relevant sciences makes continuous training mandatory.
