Doctoral Program: This course targets comprehensive prediction and mitigation of natural disasters caused by snow avalanches, flooding, volcanic eruptions, landslides and other geologic processes. Studies focus on prevention and mitigation of natural disasters, with due consideration on variation of hazardous phenomena as a result of rapid environmental and social change. Students are expected to pursue original and cutting-edge research to publish papers in peer-review journal(s), and obtain highly evaluated achievement in disaster sciences worthy of doctoral degree. Through those research activities, we foster researchers, engineers, governmental and international officers and experts relevant to disaster risk reduction.
NOTE: The university may have additional program-specific eligibility requirements. It is recommended to verify these on the official university website.
