Model curriculum on disaster management for University courses in Environmental Science/Management

[Anil Kumar Gupta]

I am happy to share the model and suggestive curriculum on disaster management for introduction within diploma and masters courses in environmental sciences. Being higly interdisciplinary, it may be taught by any teacher of environmental studies preferably by teacher of environmental policy and management. UGC has included the subject as a priority in its scheme on innovative and emerging area courses for funding to Universities and also in vocational courses funding support on recommendation from NIDM/NDMA. UGC also recommends proposals for conducting university/college teachers orientation/refreshers courses on disaster management under the category of environmental science/studies. Please find the attachement with suggestive syllabus subject to modification by the board of studies.

We are planning for such a course jointly with IGNOU or other Online means. Once final, we will advertise.
