Earthquakes and extreme weather are triggers for disasters in many parts of the world. The effects of climate change and of cities that keep on growing bigger and bigger are also increasingly harmful. Our exposure and vulnerability to landslides, (flash)flooding and other hazards are continuously changing. Would you like to know why and when natural hazards can turn into disasters? Want to play a role in minimizing their impact and reducing disaster risk? Then ITC’s specialization in Natural Hazards and Disaster Risk Reduction is what you are re looking for.
In our specialization courses we deal with natural hazards, vulnerability and disaster risk by combining geo-information technology with an earth science perspective. You will gain insight in methods to analyze, predict and monitor hydro-meteorological and seismic hazard processes. You will study how hazards and risk may change in the future due to global changes.
