Safety Engineering began to recruit undergraduates in 2005 and became the provincial characteristic major in 2015. In 2018, it was approved as a master’s degree program in the first-level discipline of Safety Science and Engineering, which was selected as the provincial first-class specialty construction site in 2019. Relying on the advantages of subjects group among civil engineering integration in our university, it has constructed seven professional labs, including civil construction safety lab , industrial ventilation lab, mine safety lab, building fires lab, man-machine engineering lab, dust prevention lab, emergency rescue lab. At present, the major has formed the curriculum system with two training directions based on the ground engineering security and safety of underground space. Most graduates are employed by central and state-owned enterprises, such as CSCEC, CREC, CRCC and CCCC. The first employment rate of graduates has remained at a high level, and all employers are highly satisfied with the students trained in this major.
