Course participants are typically safety and design engineers but also include writers of warnings and safety literature, liability and product managers, in-house counsel and outside experts.
According to the College of Engineering, regarding its department’s core values and impact, “Our alumni base is more than 50,000 strong – and includes people whose job titles not only include the word “engineer,” but also range from astronaut to CEO to entrepreneur and many, many, many more. They are deeply proud of their engineering education and the opportunities it has presented them. They are part our college’s past, present and future of making a difference beyond our campus, and through them, our college has influenced some of the greatest achievements in the world—including the Hoover Dam, the Panama Canal, and the development of the integrated circuit.”
