“…There are two distinct trends from this compiled review. These trends, noted in the first review , were reinforced with the additional references noted in this paper (Table ). The efforts to instruct students with current technology using current teaching tools is a global effort reaching across all disciplines, not just process safety.…”

One of many efforts to help instructors teach process safety‐related concepts to undergraduate chemical engineers includes using AIChE's web‐based Concept Warehouse, a real‐time, interactive teaching tool which can be used during lectures when teaching chemical engineering subjects. This article describes a student outreach effort by the AIChE Safety and Health Division to help populate the Concept Warehouse with vetted process safety‐related problems. The purpose of this article is to describe how we are bridging the gap between the practitioner volunteering their expertise and faculty members interested in incorporating current process safety‐related concepts into their classes. The goal for this effort is to provide a comprehensive instructional tool that can be used to help teach process safety‐related engineering design concepts, as well as to help teach the essential administrative process safety and risk management system concepts, using problems that describe both the engineering and administrative controls required for safe and reliable operations. The Concept Warehouse is an information database and instructional tool accessible to anyone teaching core chemical engineering topics such as thermodynamics, kinetics, or process safety anywhere in the world. This article defines and provides the framework of this effort to populate the Concept Warehouse with process safety‐related problems. As process safety risk reduction efforts continue to evolve, this article provides updates to traditional definitions that can be used to help orient those unfamiliar with these systems‐related process safety risk management strategies. The article concludes with a few example problems which could be used when teaching process safety‐related concepts. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Process Saf Prog 38: e12010, 2019

BACKGROUND: Young employees have often poorer occupational safety and health (OSH) skills and knowledge than older employees. Efforts should be made at different educational levels to strengthen young employees' OSH skills and knowledge. OBJECTIVE: To analyze OSH perceptions and attitudes among university students and to examine OSH professionals' views on OSH teaching. METHODS: This explorative study employs an iterative multimethod approach, including a paired comparison questionnaire for university students (N = 104) and OSH professionals (N = 40), an OSH questionnaire for university students (N = 130) and a Delphi survey for OSH professionals (N = 26). 2 RESULTS: OSH perceptions and attitudes were found to vary widely among the students and some expressed somewhat stereotypical views about OSH. The results confirm the need to improve OSH education. To that end, the study reports concrete practical ideas from OSH professionals. CONCLUSIONS: The findings confirm the need to augment both the quality and quantity of OSH teaching at university level. Ideas are presented for future OSH teaching, along with recommendations for future studies.

“…Safety culture is the collective values, attitudes, competencies, and commitment to the health and safety programs within an organization [9,15]. The mindset and relevant knowledge of individual engineers toward safety is formed in the tertiary classroom, which they subsequently carry with them into their careers [1,9,11,17]. This includes laboratory safety eventually leading to workplace safety, but also risk management concepts in design and processes [5].…”

Safety is one of many imperatives considered by engineers as they design, build, test, and maintain solutions to meet client needs. The mindset and relevant knowledge of individual engineers toward safety is formed n the tertiary classroom, which students then carry with them into their careers and influence the safety culture of heir workspaces. As an innovative means to include safety content in the University of Alberta’s Faculty of Engineering undergraduate programs, a large-scale project tasked co-op students with creating videos promoting and instructing on safety concepts and procedures in laboratory spaces. Beyond the deliverables, this authentic, active learning experience increased the safety knowledge and commitment of both students and staff, infiltrating and positively impacting the safety culture within all engineering and science programs.
