Profile of the Programme |
---|
The aim of the Safety Engineering study program is to prepare specialists in the field of safety management in small, medium and large industrial enterprises. Areas of activity are both occupational safety including individual subgroups such as ergonomics, occupational hygiene, explosion prevention and others, but also
the field of environment and process safety in the context of an integrated concept of safety in individual industries. The proposed study program Safety Engineering is multidisciplinary and includes areas according to the risk management cycle according to ISO 31000, using OHSAS (ISO 45001). |
