At Colorado School of Mines (CSM) there is a unique opportunity to educate the future electrical engineers about the vital topic of electrical safety. All electrical specialty undergraduate students are required to take a three-week (3-credits) Field Session course during the summer months between their junior and senior years. This paper discusses the outline and the theoretical framework of the electrical safety training and education program currently being developed and implemented in the CSM undergraduate degree curriculum.
