Students Interacting with Safety

EH&S staff engaged students in learning through safety courses like Technology Systems Management (TSM) 471 – Safety Laboratory and  Chemistry (CHEM) 550 - Safety in the Chemical Laboratory. The message of safety is connected to many courses in the College of Engineering through the Shop Safety Enhanced Learning and Training Infrastructure Project (SSELT). This project allows the course instructor to require students to complete specific safety modules through Blackboard Learn and Learn@ISU.


Students have interacted with EH&S staff through events like Destination Iowa State and Campus Fire Safety Day where they learned about fire safety on campus and in residence facilities. They also gained hands-on experience using fire extinguishers.
