| Project SHAPE (Safety and Health Awareness for Preventive Engineering) was a collaborative project between NIOSH, engineering professional societies, and engineering schools to enhance the education of engineering students in occupational safety and health. With expert assistance from engineering school faculty and engineering societies, NIOSH has produced a series of nine instructional modules to further achieve project goals. These modules are available for use by engineering faculty who have interest in incorporating occupational safety and health topics within appropriate required and elective courses
