The EHS Office was formed in 2001, but the history of the programs and services provided long preceded the formation of the organization. In the late 1940s, each office was formed not only to support regulatory needs to ensure the Institute was in compliance, but also to ensure faculty, researchers, staff and students worked safely. As an organization, we continue to oversee operational EHS management, provide services that demonstrate MIT’s commitment to EHS stewardship and support MIT’s commitment to EHS performance beyond compliance. The history timeline highlights some of these milestones.
The timeline is organized into the following categories and is dynamic:
- Organization
- Innovation
- Award/Event
- Publication
