A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

SAFETY 2 Credits Compulsory

Safety in workshop and laboratory practice is the disciplined use of rules, equipment, and behaviour to prevent injury, damage, contamination, and disruption of work. For examination purposes, you must master hazard recognition, safe use of tools and materials, personal protective equipment, emergency response, and good housekeeping because these are the foundations of all practical scientific work.
