Overview

Students won’t find this two-year degree in many other institutions. The University of New Haven's program prepares students for professional work with a unique mix of courses that give them a basic knowledge of fire protection and safety in the industrial environment — that is, manufacturing, construction, and other service-related firms. Along the way, students will also develop a deep appreciation of the hazards, not only to human lives, but also to entire businesses. Damage to equipment and buildings can slow down or even kill a business, having a devastating economic impact on both owners and workers. Acquire top-notch skills in state-of-the-art fire laboratories. Out of the classroom and inside the University of New Haven's labs, students will get the hands-on experience that lets them hit the ground running when they start their career. Modern and well equipped, the labs replicate what happens in real-world situations. Students will work in: The Fire Dynamics Laboratory: Here, students will experiment with burning metals and other materials. See first-hand how certain materials ignite and how they burn as well as how they react with various extinguishing agents. The Fire Detection/Alarm Laboratory: The University of New Haven updated this cutting-edge facility in 2010 to the newly updated NFPA alarm codes. Students will use it to experiment and understand the details of how a code-compliant alarm system operates. The Sprinkler Laboratory: This is where students have the chance to reset a sprinkler system, trip the valve, and flow water out of whichever head they choose – sidewall, pendant, upright, or deluge-style head.

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
