Firehouse Friday: Worcester Polytechnic Institute

Fire protection engineering is a little different than firefighting, but it all works toward the same goals: savings people and assets from fire damage.  Students at Worcester Polytechnic Institute’s Fire Protection Engineering program study the designs and technologies of fires, their environments, and how to fight them.  They work closely with the local fire service; when they develop new technologies and prototypes, the firefighters will test them in the field and give feedback.

Thank you for all of your hard work to help keep us safe!
