Introduction to risk assessment, what does the law say? Fundamentals of Hazard, Exposures, and Risk Assessment. Concepts in Risk Assessment. The Risk Assessment Process (preparing to conduct risk assessments, Listing Core Activities, Prioritising Core Activities, Job Analysis, identifying hazards). Risk Assessment techniques and Methods of approach. Hazardous Waste Management Decisions from Risk Assessment. Selected Case Studies and Applications. Written safe work practices. 400 Level GET 402 Engineering Project I (2 Units: C; PH 90) Learning Outcomes At the end of this course, the students should be able to: 1. Complete the design phase of a complex engineering problem sourced from industry or community during the SIWES III programme. 2. Demonstrate the connection between engineering product-making and the theoretical courses they have learned following the applicable industry best practices. Course Contents In the second semester of the 400-level students, preferably in groups, work from the university on the identified industry or organization to tackle industry complex engineering problems. Theoretical issues may be provided by the department faculty or industry experts. During the vacation, students will now work full time with the organisation/industry on the project as part of the SIWES III. The students can also go beyond the department and engage in multidisciplinary undertakings. Literature survey, review of existing systems etc. must be achieved to a satisfactory extent. GET 404 Engineering Valuation and Appraisal (2 Units: C; LH 30) Learning Outcomes At the end of this course, the students should be able to: 1. Identify at least three (3) objectives of engineering valuation work, valuer's primary duty and responsibility and valuation terminologies. 2. Describe at least four (4) Valuer's obligation to his or her client, to other valuers, and to the society. 3. Demonstrate with example the engineering valuation methods, valuation standards, and practices. 4. Prepare engineering valuation and appraisal reports and review 5. Discuss expert witnessing and ethics in valuation. 6. Determine price, cost, value, depreciation and obsolescence in real property, personal property, personal property, machinery and equipment, oil, gas, mines, and quarries valuation.

Meaning and definition of Risk Evaluation. Risk Characterization: the qualitative and/or quantitative estimation, attendant uncertainties, probability of occurrence and severity of known or potential adverse health effects on a population based on hazard identification, hazard characterization and exposure assessment. Requirements for risk characterization such as mathematical knowledge (as in modelling data), knowledge of the process under consideration, and microbiological knowledge and expertise is invariably needed. Stages of risk characterization: (i) combining previous MRA steps; (ii) summarizing the risk; (iii) variability in risk; (iv) validation against experience. Determination of risk management priorities through establishment of qualitative and /or quantitative relationships between benefits and associative risks. Risk evaluation process: identification, probability and impact, moment of risk, treatment, secondary risk, residual risk, and monitoring and review. Techniques of reduction and management of environmental risks: substitution, information about the safe use and disposal of agents to the public and users, and limiting the availability of the agent.
