Health and Environmental Engineering

Introduction
The Department of Safety, Health and Environmental Engineering was established in 1997. The mission of the
department is to achieve significant advancement in teaching and researches, thus allowing fostering
knowledgeable and well-trained professionals within the expanded scope of safety, health or environmental
engineering. It is also the department’s goal to prepare the students with the ability to identify, formulate and
contribute resilient and sustainable solutions to various engineering challenges in the world, today and
tomorrow. The department provides supportive learning environment to the students through classrooms,
laboratories, design projects, research projects, as well as field internships.

Programs
The department currently offers Bachelor of Science Program and Master of Science Program in Safety,
Health and Environmental Engineering, and all the programs are fully accredited by IEET. The department
also offers advanced study for degree in Doctoral Program at the Graduate Institute of Engineering Science
and Technology. The department welcomes enrollment of international students for academic degrees or non-
degree programs. Average annual enrollment at the department are:
Undergraduate: 430 students
Graduate (master program): 158 students
