The United States Air Force occupation, Bioenvironmental Engineering (BE), is based out of Brooks City-Base in San Antonio, Texas at the United States Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine. Bioenvironmental Engineering blends engineering and preventive medicine. Their role is to identify and evaluate environments that could harm Air Force members, employees, and families. The data from these evaluations help design measures that prevent illness and injury.

Areas of speciality include:

  • Airborne Dusts, Fumes, Mists, Fogs, Vapors, or Gases
  • Biological Hazards
  • Biomechanical Stresses
  • Chemical Hazards
  • Chemical protection Clothing, Devices or Equipment
  • Cold Stress
  • Confined Space Hazards
  • Drinking Water
  • Employee Exposures
  • Environmental Sampling
  • Environmental Health Repetitive Motion Stresses
  • Ergonomic Stress
  • Hazardous Materials
  • Health Hazards
  • Indoor Air Quality
  • Industrial Hygiene
