Environmental & Safety

Students in this pathway learn to assess workplace hazards, manage safety programs, and ensure environmental compliance. The training supports careers in occupational health and safety, environmental management, and regulatory inspection roles across manufacturing and construction industries.

Texas is synonymous with energy development. Texas is the No. 1 wind energy generator in the country, producing ¼ of the national total and over 17.5 percent of all in-state electricity generation. Solar power generation is growing as well. And electrical lineworkers will be needed as long as we have electricity, so this career path is a good one. Choose your career, and harness your power!
