M.E – Industrial Safety Engineering – Selvam College of Technology

ME – INDUSTRIAL SAFETY ENGINEERING:

The Department was established in the year 2014 with an intake of 18 students. The Department equipped with well qualified and experienced faculty members. The Department has good laboratory facilities with latest and updated versions of the software and 24 hours Wi-Fi enabled Internet facility.

Industrial Safety engineering is an engineering discipline which assures that engineered systems provide acceptable levels of safety. It is strongly related to systems engineering, industrial engineering and the subset system safety engineering. Safety engineering assures that a life-critical system behaves as needed, even when components fail. The main aim of this course is to train personnel of scientific know-how and orientation in theory and practice in the area of safety, health and hygiene.

The Department conducts periodic workshops, seminars, symposiums and conferences to help the students, research scholars and corporate world to unite in a common place and thereby strengthen the Industry Institution fusion.
