Objectives

We will achieve this objective by:

• Working with the college community to develop safety empowering programs and identifying the resources needed for their implementation.
• Creating a process for open dialogue, reporting and learning from past experiences.
• Making hazard identification and risk assessment processes an integral part of the experimental design, theses, dissertations, extramurally funded projects, student organization projects, and undergraduate and graduate education.
• Empowering undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and visiting scholars, faculty and staff to freely voice safety concerns.
• Implementing a process for safety education and training for students, faculty, staff and department chairs.
• Integrating safety education and practices into our engineering curricula.
• Instituting a system of accountability, recognition, and rewards.
