Out of concern for student safety, lab practices arereviewed. For accredited institutions, policies about safety in laboratories are documented inself-study reports to the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of the AccreditationBoard of Engineering and Technology (ABET) [1]. Therefore, all institutions have documentedsafety policies, but those may not be publicly available.Students should be trained in how to safely conduct experiments.

traced back to the hydraulic engineering used to provide water to ancient civilizations inAsia, Greece, Rome, Persia and South America (Anderson 2002). According to Anderson(2002) the first Sanitary Engineering (later to be called Environmental Engineering) programbegan at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1889. The program, located in the CivilEngineering Department, incorporated courses in sanitary chemistry and sanitary biology.Although similar programs at Harvard University and University of Illinois soon followed,formation of additional programs was limited until after World War II (Anderson 2002). The emergence of Environmental Engineering as an independent discipline grew out ofthe nation’s environmental revolution and the
