Today, all sectors are undergoing rapid development in an age of communication and technology. The development in all sectors has also brought along problems related to occupational health and safety, emergencies related to human-induced and technology factors, and an increase in disasters. Increased occupational diseases and work accidents caused by human- and environment-related factors have caused increased demand for professional employees trained in the field of occupational health and safety, as well as emergency and disaster management. Since recruitment of employees specialized in the field of occupational health and safety was made compulsory with the new regulations enacted and because of the increased awareness on the issue, demand is now on the rise for the fields of occupational safety and disaster management.

The Department of Property Protection and Security of İstanbul Bilgi University aims to raise technicians having the required knowledge and skills in the field of occupational health and safety, emergency and disaster management under the guidance of its faculty staff specialized in their field.
