4. EHS: My Focus
• Safety Engineering: design new guidelines,
equipment, and procedures to preserve the
health and safety of industrial workers
• Industrial Hygiene: Science and art devoted to
the anticipation, recognition, evaluation,
prevention, and control of those environmental
factors or stresses arising in or from the
workplace which may cause sickness, impaired
health and well being, or significant discomfort
among workers or among citizens of the
community.

9. Conclusion
• EHS&F provides new career options that I would
have never known about
• I will take away:
– a big appreciation for all of the difficult behind the
scenes work that EHSF does
– a more well-rounded understanding of construction
as it pertains to safety, project management, etc.
• I learned it is important to be open to new things;
consider something out of your comfort zone
– Supplement your degree with safety engineering or
industrial health related courses/certifications
