MSc Disaster Management and Sustainable Development

We are currently reviewing modules that provide opportunities to work with the industry to gain real experience. Modules will be updated in due course. From hazards, vulnerability, and human-made disaster, to environmental sustainability and community resilience, this globally-focused course explores real-world problems and how to conceptualize and address them. You will learn how to prepare for, and respond in, a crisis. You will develop the planning skills to help minimize impact and avert problems where possible. You will develop advanced knowledge, project management, and analytical skills whilst developing a specialism in an area of your choice. In the second year, for one semester you will have the chance to undertake an Advanced Practice placement/study in another country or join a research group. This valuable experience will enhance your employment opportunities and further develop your theoretical and practical skills.

A minimum of a 2:2 honors degree in any subject. Other subject qualifications, equivalent professional qualifications, and/or relevant work experience will be considered on an individual basis.
