Safety and Fire Engineering

It depends on where you wish to see yourself after the completion of the course. Safety Engineering has ample applications in many industry, especially in petroleum and related industries in the middle east and abroad. If you have plans to migrate to middle east then safety engineering might provide a viable option. Occupational health and safety engineers help prevent harm to workers, property, the environment, and the general public. Industrial safety engineers are most concerned with the way in which a production process is carried out, with a heavy focus on the safety of people and machines during manufacturing. This type of industrial engineering involves the development and monitoring of safe production systems and the assessment and correction of risky work situations, such as hazardous exposures and employee accidents. Product safety engineers often work in manufacturing environments to ensure new product designs do not create unnecessary hazards. Failure analysis and prevention are an important part of the discipline. The stream offers higher pay and perks when compared to some other streams. As quality standards get stricter, demand is growing for environmental engineers to help sample, analyze and design treatment systems for air, water and soil. Companies trying to meet these tougher standards also are hiring environmental engineers as consultants. At a time when so many are worried about climate change, the job is a hands-on way to help improve the environment, one Superfund site at a time. Environmental engineers may choose to tackle larger issues such as global warming or focus on cleaning up a local site or contamination. Now the choice is yours.
