Fire Science The time-honored art of fire-fighting is a science with a complex technology. At Ybor Campus it has become the latest career pro- gram to offer an AS, degree and a one- year certificate of proficiency. Over 80 FTE students are enrolled in the program in addition to the part-timers. Stu- dents represent many fire-fighting organiza- tions including the Tampa, Brandon, Mac- Dill, Temple Terrace, and Hillsborough Coun- ty Fire Departments. They receive more than 200 hours of instruction. Classes are taught at satellite centers as well as on campus. For example, industrial safety is taught in Plant City and pump op- eration in Temple Terrace and Brandon. Fire Science Technology is more than dous- ing flames with water. With today's new con- struction methods and materials, knowing how to, first of all, prevent fires, and then contain and extinguish them is developing into a concerted field of study. The curricula, scope and thrust of the program were de- veloped by a representative advisory commit- tee composed of Hillsborough and Pinellas County fire-fighting and protection agency officials. l.R.
