The Department of Occupational Safety & Health exceeded 1,000 graduates with the conclusion of the 2010 summer semester. The program has seen steady growth since its inception in the 1960s and now averages over 70 graduates each year at the bachelors and masters levels.

More than 500 students enrolled in at least one occupational safety course during the recent spring semester, making the program one of the largest in the United States. In addition, the American Society of Safety Engineers Student Section accumulates thousands of dollars in scholarships each year for Southeastern occupational safety students.

The Master of Science program is a primarily online program which allows students to participate from as far away as oil platforms off the coast of Africa, Middle Eastern countries, and from states all over the US. More than 80 students are currently enrolled.

The program is up-to-date with the latest technology, industrial hygiene, construction, and noise and vibration labs, and confined space training. Dozens of Fortune 500 companies recruit from the department every year and several companies come back year after year for Southeastern Occupational Safety graduates. According to Dr. Wayne D. Jones, department chair, the department has graduates in almost every state and numerous countries overseas.
