N2 - At the University of Minnesota Duluth, the Chemical Engineering Department faculty has significant industry experience that includes industry training in the practice of chemical process safety (CPS). As a faculty, we value CPS instruction in our curriculum foremost because we do not want our graduates to get hurt or hurt other people. Regardless of the nature of industries that employs our graduates, or whatever future engineering assignments or roles they may take on, there are benefits to student's exposure to CPS principles. Lessons learned from historical accidents and recent incidents remind us of the value of informing our students about their role in CPS. Starting now to develop a mindset or culture of CPS will help our graduates integrate into any organization's management of chemical process safety. The more knowledge our students have, the less likely there will be serious incidents.
