理学士 消防工程

从公元64年罗马大火开始.D. 1871年的芝加哥大火, 灾难性的火灾已经从历史的书页上消失了, shocking our minds with their unimaginable toll of human suffering. Out of the ashes of fire, the American Society of 安全 Engineers was born.

获得通往成功的技能

Fire protection engineering is a multidisciplinary program that combines principles from various areas of 科学 和工程. Our program teaches you how to apply these principles to the problem of fire protection by designing, 构建, and installing fire protection systems to prevent or minimize potential losses.

你将从打下坚实的数学基础开始, 科学, 和工程, then move on to applying your knowledge through practical, 实验室实践经验. 随着课程的进展, you’ll also acquire the critical thinking and problem-solving skills that are vital in this field.

在最先进的消防实验室进行培训

Get up-close-and-personal experience in some of the finest fire labs in the country:

  • 主要实验室. 在这里, 你将学习消防泵的关键部件, 水管, 洒水装置, 龙头, 灭火器, 以及电器和这些设备的工作原理.
  • 火灾调查实验室. 获得调查火灾的实际经验. The rooms in this lab are regularly re-burnt to change the fire so that you can keep adding to what you learn.
  • 计算机实验室. The computers here contain the same specialized software that the fire service uses. They are available to you so that you can become familiar with all of the software’s capabilities.
  • 火灾动力学实验室. Conduct experiments with burning metals and other materials here. See how certain materials ignite and how they burn as well as how they react with various extinguishing agents.
  • 火灾探测/报警实验室. 2010年更新为新更新的NFPA报警代码, this lab gives you the chance to experiment and understand the details of how a code-compliant alarm system operates.
  • 喷水灭火系统实验室. 学习如何重置喷水灭火系统, 打开阀门, and flow water out of whichever head you want — sidewall, 吊坠, upright or deluge-type head — as well as gauge the floor coverage of each head.
  • 消防和安全演示实验室. 这个实验室还在建设中. 当它完成时, you’ll be able to work with thermal dynamics and the explosive characteristics of gaseous products.
