Online Engineering Fire Safety Degree :: Accredited Universities

Offered by The William States Lee College of Engineering and the Department of Engineering Technology and Construction Management, this program consists of a sequence of upper-division (junior/senior-level) courses that lead, upon their successful completion, to the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology Degree. All courses in the program are delivered 100% online, through a combination of synchronous (real-time) and asynchronous instruction. The program emphasizes both technical and non-technical aspects in the fields of fire and safety and is directed toward those seeking positions within the fire service as well as those preparing for work in fire protection-related occupations. The curriculum is designed to prepare students for increasingly responsible roles in leadership and management. In addition, it provides comprehensive classes dealing with fire behavior, active and passive protection systems, and the foundational principles of research investigation. Program Delivery: 100% Online

Hydrogen Safety Engineering is of vital importance to the onset and further development of the hydrogen economy. It concerns the study of phenomena connected to the safety of hydrogen e.g. unscheduled releases (permeation, subsonic and supersonic jet releases, cryogenic spills), accidental combustion (premixed combustion, partially-premixed and diffusion combustion, ignition and autoignition, jet fires, deflagration, detonation, thermal loads, pressure and shock waves), and material compatibility (embrittlement, hydrogen attack) to ensure the safety of hydrogen in a variety of practical applications (production, storage, transportation, utilisation, development of infrastructures); including the development and application of mitigation technologies, accident prevention methodologies, and, standards and legal requirements.

In addition to providing the student with a systematic understanding of the scientific/technological principles and techniques involved in hydrogen safety, this programme aims to develop the skill and expertise to apply this knowledge to the provision of safety in a wide range of hydrogen applications.

Entry Requirements

Students can apply directly to the Master’s, or can apply for a PgCert and then move on through the levels, or apply for a PgDip and then move on to the Masters.

Applicants must:
(a) have gained

(i) an Honours or non-Honours degree in a cognate discipline for entry to the linked Postgraduate Certificate/Postgraduate Diploma/Master’s programme or a second class honours degree or better in a cognate discipline for entry to the Master’s programme from a university of the United Kingdom or the Republic of Ireland, from the Council for National Academic Awards, the National Council for Educational Awards, the Higher Education and Training Awards Council or from an institution of another country which has been recognised as being of an equivalent standard; or

(ii) for linked PgCert/PgDip/MSc: an equivalent standard in a Graduate Certificate or Graduate Diploma or an approved alternative qualification;
for Master’s: an equivalent standard (normally 50%) in a Graduate Diploma, Graduate Certificate, Postgraduate Certificate or Postgraduate Diploma or an approved alternative qualification;
and

(b) provide evidence of competence in written and spoken English (GCSE grade C or equivalent) and evidence of competence in mathematics (GCSE grade C or equivalent);
or, as an alternative to (a) (i) or (a) (ii) and/or (b):

(c) in exceptional circumstances, where an individual has substantial and significant experiential learning, a portfolio of written evidence demonstrating the meeting of graduate qualities (including subject-specific outcomes, as determined by the Course Committee) may be considered as an alternative entrance route. Evidence used to demonstrate graduate qualities may not be used for exemption against modules within the programme.
