In UH, there are many safety programs related to usual field studies and experiments（http://www.hawaii.edu/ehso/）. In fact, I’m interested in “Diving Safety”, but it’s not urgent one. I took “Biological Safety Program”（http://www.hawaii.edu/ehso/bio/） for my future study. The students and faculties, who use bacteria in their studies, must finish this program.

Also at the universities in Japan, such a safety programs is getting used to be held in these years, because national university changed to corporate body a couple of years ago. But it seems that the care and consciousness for the bioterrorism has not been still equipped enough, in Japan. As for diving safety, although the Japanese Coral Reef Society (JCRS)（http://wwwsoc.nii.ac.jp/jcrs/english/index.html）, in which many researchers using diving affiliates, equip such a committee, the rules may not be kept by the members.
