OUTCOMES:

 This course would make students to know and run the various equipments to bring out the safety environment in the industry.
 Course would be helpful for the students to measure the particulate matter and assess the impact of air pollution.
 Students would be trained to conduct experiments to find out various environmental parameters. Students would be able to use personal protective equipment in-dependently.
 Students can recognise the various problems with the use of software and hence to predict the real situations on major accidents.
