A progressive program to incorporate Hazard Awareness and Assessment into the laboratory curriculum of each undergraduate laboratory course will be presented. The programmatic curricular changes start with the fundamental concepts of awareness and sources of information, and expand with each successive laboratory course, culminating in a written Hazard Assessment Report as the "Capstone Project" requirement for completion of the student's senior lab course, and thus a degree requirement for graduation. Concept development and objectives of this program and how it is being implemented on our campus will be discussed.
