Instructor (Intro) :
Prof. Dr. Thomas Glade is Professor of Physical Geography at the University of Vienna with a focus on geomorphological systems and risk research. In his research he has specialized on landslides. Furthermore, he conducts research on consequences of natural hazards on socio-economic systems in terms of risks and disasters. In addition to teaching in consecutive degree programs, extra-occupational training is very important to him - since 2013 he has been leading the extra occupational MSc. Program OeRISK - Risk Prevention and Disaster Management, which is established at the University of Vienna's Postgraduate Center.

General information about the course :
Course content : Natural hazards are ubiquitous in our environment, past, present, and they will remain so in the future. Representative of such disasters, we would like this course to contribute to a better understanding of the general natural and social foundations, to identify the interrelationships and interactions in order to promote options of sustainable management strategies.
Learning goal : Upon completion of the MOOC, learners will be able to ...
- understand and name basic relationships in the context of natural hazards, natural risks and disaster management, e.g., interactions in the relationships between different natural hazards, their consequences and the potential management options.
- name and understand relevant theories and concepts, e.g., risk governance.
- name causes of natural hazards at different spatial/temporal scales.
- understand potential impacts of these processes on various sectors of society (e.g., economy, spatial planning, critical infrastructure).
- understand and name different management options in terms of the risk cycle, including direct aftercare (event management, reconstruction) and active preparedness (prevention, preparedness), with a particular focus on prevention.
Prerequisites : No prior knowledge is required for participation. Knowledge of English is an advantage for some of the literature references.
Course procedure :
You can expect exciting and varied lectures and interviews with selected experts. This will provide you with comprehensive insights into the inter-, intra-, trans- and multidisciplinary perspectives on the topic of natural hazards, natural risks and disaster management. The MOOC consists of 5 lessons, each lesson dealing in depth with the respective topics:
Lesson 1: Natural Hazards
Lesson 2: Interactions and extreme events
Lesson 3: Vulnerabilities and Resilience
Lesson 4: Prevention
Lesson 5: Disaster Management
