On this course, you'll: Learn from experts with extensive industrial and consultancy experience and strong research portfolios in natural hazards. Become skilled in the application of specialist techniques including numerical hazard modeling and simulation, catastrophe modeling, field reconnaissance and geomorphological mapping, geotechnical testing, spatial analysis and remote sensing. Learn about physical processes that affect and control natural hazards, including volcanology and earthquakes, flooding and hydrological hazards, coastal erosion, slope instability and landslides. Take part in research-based field trips, both locally and overseas, where you will receive specialist field training in hazard identification, mapping and monitoring. Complete your own independent research project to academic or industrial standards with opportunities to work with industrial partners on a joint project.
