23 May 2012: Safety and Reliability Engineering at the University of Aberdeen
An evening event from 18:00 - 20:00 in FN2

The School of Engineering at the University of Aberdeen has been engaged in research and teaching in safety and reliability engineering since the early 1990s, following the Piper Alpha disaster and the subsequent University appointment of Michael Baker as Chair in Safety Engineering (now Emeritus Professor at the University). Building on a 20-year track record, and with support from The Lloyd’s Register Educational Trust (The LRET), the School has recently established The LRET Centre for Safety and Reliability Engineering, aimed at providing a focal point for the study of practical and theoretical problems related to the safety of engineering systems, structures and processes.

The new LRET Centre for Safety and Reliability Engineering is keen to foster links with industry. You are therefore invited to an evening event to find out more about the Centre’s activities and to give your view on key directions for future research and education in safety and reliability engineering. The event will be attended by safety specialists and practitioners from local industry, including many alumni of the University’s long-running MSc programme.
