Safety

We are committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment for our students, staff, faculty, and the general public. To minimize the potential exposure to toxic and hazardous materials, we require our students, staff, and faculty to adhere to all Kansas State University laboratory safety policies and rules that govern the research and usage of specific hazards such as chemical, radioactive, and bio-hazardous materials.
