Natural disasters cause human suffering. They also create substantial physical and economic damage, which can spill over outside the disaster area. As a result, disasters may erode a country鈥檚 overall economic development. There is relationship between natural disasters and economic growth. So proper mitigation and adaption options are required to lessen the impact of disasters on economic and social aspects. This course is, therefore, to exercise the tools and techniques that can be applied/adopted to assess the disaster impact and their mitigation options.

Cities grow faster and every day the urban areas are being increased, which creates pressure on exiting infrastructures/facilities, economy and standard of living. Again, the growth of urban areas is not as much as the growth of population. As a result, the urban population density is hiking always that increases the exposure to the human lives to the urban disaster like earthquake, flood, and fire and build collapse etc. This leads to make urban setting vulnerable day by day. So to make urban areas more resilient is a great concern for city / disaster management authority and urban dwellers. To avoid losses from disasters, and to prevent affected citizens from falling into poverty, improved urban resilience can safeguard for its generations. Hence this course is designed to highlight the theories, techniques and best practices for attaining urban resilience in a sustainable way.

This course will provide an opportunity for students to establish or advance their understanding of research through critical exploration of research language, ethics, and approaches. The course introduces the language of research, ethical principles and challenges, and the elements of the research process within quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods approaches. Students will use these theoretical underpinnings to begin to critically review literature relevant to their field or interests and determine how research findings are useful in forming their understanding of their work, social, local and global environment. Based on the learning, the students will prepare their thesis/project proposal in this course. In addition, the ideal format for submitting a project proposal to achieve research grant will also be addressed in this course. Finally, students should able to know how to present the expected project outcomes to the professional audience.

Remote Sensing (RS) dataset is widely being used, nowadays, in Disaster Management Cycle. Effective disaster management needs information before, during and after the event for risk reduction, response and crisis management. So real time data or data of temporal nature is essential for proper disaster management (DM). DM also needs data of remote and inaccessible areas. These needs of DM make Remote Sensing data is a must. On the other hand, GIS is a tool to accommodate data from various sources like, RS, GPS (Global Positioning System), field survey (spatial and non-spatial info) and data from other sources or thematic areas to perform analysis for suggesting options for taking appropriate decision for DM. Also GIS is a strong platform for data visualization for individual thematic area and a mashup of different themes.

This course introduces students about the objective of linking broad organizational and institutional social forces in the field of disaster management. Through this course Students will develop understanding of the disaster management perspective through study of content and the processes used by disaster managers to discover, describe, explain, and/or predict the institutional, organizational and social systems. Students must understand the diversities and complexities of the organizational and social world, past and present, from a critical analytical perspective, and methodologies, and come to an informed sense of contemporary disaster management approaches. This course will give students a grounded experience of how disasters impact on people and their societies, their political cultures and institutions. This course is designed to emphasize:聽The ability to see how individual lives are connected with wider social and cultural processes and forces; and the ability to work both independently and cooperatively in the application of sociological or anthropological ideas.
