The Southeast Consortium for Occupational Risk and Engagement (SCORE) is the coordinating entity for occupational safety and health research, professional education, regulatory training, and employer support across Florida and the southeastern United States. By integrating three University of South Florida programs, SCORE provides a coordinated approach to research, education, public health practice, and continuing education.

SCORE brings together Sunshine ERC, USF OTIEC, and USF SafetyFlorida to deliver these four pillars and connect employers, workers, researchers, students, and community partners with comprehensive occupational safety and health resources.
