What is Fire Protection Engineering?

An FPE's job is very challenging and is becoming even more critical in the wake of the terrorists attacks on September 11, 2001. FPE's, along with other engineering disciplines, are forging the way not only for newer and safer designs, but for other advances in fire protection that will ultimately save lives.
