Process Safety in Semiconductor Manufacturing – Spring 2025
Comprehensive understanding of chemical process safety principles and practices specifically tailored to the semiconductor manufacturing industry; overview of how to identify and mitigate hazards associated with chemical processes, develop emergency response plans, and gain insights into safety management systems within semiconductor facilities.
Process Safety Engineering (SENG 455/655) – Spring 2025
This course is concerned with all aspects of Chemical Process Safety and Loss Prevention. Process Safety differs from Personnel Safety (or Industrial Hygiene), in that it is concerned primarily with the identification of potential hazards and hazardous conditions associated with the processes and equipment involved in the Chemical Process Industries, and methods of predicting the possible severity of these hazards and presenting, controlling, or mitigating them.
SENG 312/674: System Safety Engineering – Spring 2025
This semester course will be completed online and is parallel to the Texas A&M course offering. You will receive instructions on how to log in to the course the third week of January. Continuing education students might have fewer expectations than an enrolled A&M student. The instructor will outline in the syllabus and communicate expectations with participants at the beginning of the course. This course can applied towards the Process Safety Practice Certificate the MKOPSC offers.
