In an era where chemical process safety is more critical than ever, instilling a strong safety mindset at the undergraduate level is crucial to develop responsible engineers. This presentation explores innovative and practical approaches to embedding process safety into chemical engineering education, with a focus on building a lasting safety culture among students through the application of a Chemical Process Safety Competition.
We will highlight the role of curriculum integration and the power of friendly competition that includes a safety case investigation, written report, and a final poster session. Attendees will gain insights into how to design and implement safety-focused competitions that are engaging, educational, and aligned with industry standards.
Whether you're a faculty member, student leader, or safety advocate, this session will provide actionable strategies to promote safety awareness, critical thinking, and a proactive safety culture that students carry into their professional careers.
