The content of an Advanced Master's in Safety Engineering lays the foundation for different initiatives regarding commitment to process safety as expressed by the chemical industry in Belgium. Process safety education is a very broad interdisciplinary topic in which various concepts deserve integration and sufficient and balanced academic attention. The definition, selection, and review of these concepts form the backbone described in this research, which considers the selection of relevant concepts based on literature review, analysis of historic and recent incidents that occurred in the process industry, and validation by the chemical major hazard industry. This article describes the methodology of the research and the results of both the literature review and analysis of incidents. The validation phase by the industry will be the subject of subsequent article.
