Rose-Hulman is dedicated to the protection and conservation of the environment.

EH&S manages all of these waste streams with great care.

The RHIT Emergency Response Plan (ERP) establishes procedures and responsibilities in the event of emergency events affecting campus. The ERP is reviewed annually and exercised multiple times per year.
Education
Quick action is needed to prevent the loss of lives and injuries during an emergency. EH&S has prepared training programs and educational materials to help students, faculty and staff know what they must do before, during and after an emergency, both on campus and at home.
