Occupational Safety and Health Engineering Training Program

描述(由申请人提供)：辛辛那提大学(UC)教育和研究中心(ERC)提议继续培训职业健康专业人员的研究生和继续教育，为期五年，从2011年7月到2016年6月，除职业安全与健康工程(OSHE)计划外，该计划由政府资助。在解决了审查员在2011年7/01/2012-6/30/2016年7月1日至2016年6月30日期间提出的关切后，重新提交了职业安全和健康教育提案，作为补充提案。OSHE计划再次提交从2014年7月1日至2016年6月30日的资助期补充提案。 OSHE计划的使命是通过教育和研究活动满足国家和地区在职业安全和健康工程方面的需求。OSHE项目的主要目标是为工程学研究生提供安全和健康工程方面的培训机会，以培养高能力的安全专业人员。该计划的次要目标是为其他工程领域的学生提供接触安全和健康工程的机会，使他们能够在工程工作中考虑安全和健康方面的问题。OSHE计划通过一系列基础安全课程、跨学科项目和专注于将先进工程技术应用于安全和健康问题的论文或论文研究来培训学生。OSHE计划的毕业生将成为公共和私人组织的安全从业者、将设计更安全的设备或系统的工程师，以及专注于实验室、学术界和工业的职业安全和健康的研究人员。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Cincinnati (UC) Education and Research Center (ERC) proposed to continue training occupational health professionals in graduate and continuing education for five-year period of July 2011 through June 2016, which was funded except the Occupational Safety and Health Engineering (OSHE) program. The OSHE proposal was resubmitted as a supplemental proposal after addressing reviewers' concerns raised in 2011 for the funding period from 07/01/2012 - 06/30/2016, which was not funded. The OSHE Program resubmits a supplemental proposal again for the funding period from 07/01/2014- 06/30/2016. The mission of the OSHE Program is to meet the national and regional needs in occupational safety and health engineering through education and research activities. The primary objective of the OSHE Program is to provide engineering graduate students with training opportunities in safety and health engineering to foster highly capable safety professionals. A secondary objective of the Program is to provide exposure to safety and health engineering for students who specialize in other engineering areas, enabling them to consider safety and health aspects in their engineering work conduct. The OSHE Program trains students through a set of fundamental safety courses, interdisciplinary projects and a thesis or dissertation research focused on application of advanced engineering technologies to safety and health problems. Graduates from the OSHE Program are envisioned to become safety practitioners in public and private organizations, engineers who will design safer equipment or systems, and researchers focusing on occupational safety and health at laboratories, academia and industries.
