Overview

The Fire Protection Engineering programme from University of New Haven will give you an extensive understanding of fire science and fire dynamics — how fires get started and the ways they behave and spread. By understanding the behavior of fire, you can analyze potential risks and design solutions that will prevent a blaze from igniting in the first place.

Key Facts:

Fire’s mindless fury destroys lives, homes, businesses, the environment, and even history when it ravages irreplaceable items such as records and artifacts. Another force of nature, water, is its downfall, but there’s a more studied method of attack — the application of scientific and engineering principles that prevent, suppress, or mitigate fire. That’s where Fire Protection Engineers come in.
