Master in MSc Disaster Management and Resilience

Disaster management and resilience explore how societies prepare for, respond to and recover from emergencies, addressing questions of risk perception, communication flows, and the effectiveness of response strategies. The programme examines the information needs of communities, responders and organisations, and analyses how media, digital platforms and inter-agency coordination influence outcomes during crises.

A distinctive feature of this course is its strong emphasis on research and practical communication, illustrated by a dedicated module on communication, information, risk and resilience and a compulsory dissertation that allows students to develop original research aligned to professional standards. Together these elements provide both theoretical insight and hands-on experience needed for roles in emergency management, policy development and resilience planning.
