Assessing Embedded Process Safety Curriculum Within Core Chemical Engineering CoursesIntroductionIn a field that has been plagued by numerous industrial accidents and incidents sinceit’s very beginnings, process safety education of chemical engineering students shouldbe an important focus of every chemical engineering department’s curriculum. Toillustrate how important process safety education is, we only need to look at the numberof industrial accidents in the recent past: the European Commission’s Major AccidentReporting System (MARS) has logged over 129 major accidents since 1978 [1] whilethe U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Identification Board (CSB) has completedinvestigations of 105 accidents since 1998 [2].
