From the academic year of 2008, Department of Safety, Health and Environmental engineering (SHE) was developed by integration of 2 departments of Environmental Engineering and Industrial Safety and Health as well as 2 master’s programs of Environmental Engineering and Occupational Safety and Disaster Prevention with 1 in-service master’s program of Environmental Engineering for part-time students. The objective of Department of SHE development was to train the students to fulfill the requirement of professional capabilities both for environmental protection and public security in the traditional and high-tech industries by focusing on industrial safety, cleaner production, pollution prevention and control in industrial manufacturing technology as the departmental characteristics.

Additionally, the green technology-related courses were also incorporated in teaching and research by the trend of sustainable development of domestic and international industries such as clean production, resources recycling, energy conservation and carbon reduction of green manufacturing. The department curriculums were 3 programs such as environmental engineering, safety and health, green technology which covered core courses and the other elective courses for the student interests, licensing exams and job career to cultivate our students to be the qualified professionals.

Due to the national development trends and industry demand, the cultivated goal of department of SHE was to train our students to be professional and technical engineers in the field of environmental engineering and pollution control, occupational safety and health, green technology with green energy and carbon reduction.
