- The Institute of Safety and Systems Management at the University of Southern California operated from 1952 to 1992. It was the first academic degree program in the United States that offered degrees in safety, human factors, and systems management. It offered extensive coursework in aviation safety, and was the National Institute of Occupational and Safety and Health's (N.I.O.S.H.) Educational Resource Center in Southern California from 1979 to 1992. A large number of I.S.S.M. graduate students were funded with N.I.O.S.H. fellowships, a number were supported by military and aerospace companies (of which there were many in Southern California at the time). The Institute of Safety and Systems Management closed in 1997 after over forty years of operation as a result of a U.S.C. strategic study. The Institute began in 1952 when the United States Air Force worked with the University of Southern California to develop more scientific safety practices using a systems approach, especially as related to aviation safety and complex systems. The program expanded into a full range of occupational safety, industrial hygiene, aviation safety, systems safety, human factors, Information Systems, and hazardous waste management programs. Short courses were also offered in addition to the academic courses. (en)
